All This Safety is Killing Us [combines] political strategy with evidence-based medical and social science research to envision a post-carceral society. With contributions from scholars, activists and artists, All This Safety is Killing Us marks a radical break from punitive frameworks. Special features include: Contributions from nurses, doctors, doulas, public health workers, physical therapists, acupuncturists, and disability justice workers. Woodcuts, comics, mini-zines, infographics, and drawings by community activists, queer and trans/gender expansive-focused writers, current prisoners, deportees, and survivors of state-sanctioned violence. Interviews with leading abolition and health justice scholars. Bringing scholarly research into public conversation, this book shows that those working within public health and medical fields have a critical role to play in creating a truly safe and flourishing society.

Look at these photos. It is terrifying and it is happening.
I don't have words for the fear these images conjure up, only that when I look at these images I know what I am looking at — and it is the most direct route to hell that humanity is capable of taking.

On TDV, all my QT friends! You are loved. You are crucial. I wish you more that baseline survival (though obviously first goal), I wish all trans joy! For those who are visible, you deserve so much more support. For those who aren’t, I work for a world where that’s not a question of safety.

They don't have voicemail so call during weekday hours, but if we expect the Governor to step up right now and protect Massachusetts against fascism, we need to make ourselves known. #MAPOLI
I'm calling the Governor's Office to complain, and if you live in MA, you should too: (617) 725-4005

Rumeysa is now in Louisiana in ICE custody. This is after a MA judge ruled that she should not be sent out of Massachusetts without prior written notice.
They sent her to Louisiana because immigration judges there are extremely hostile to immigrants and people who oppose genocide. #mapoli

Reeling from the fact that this passed. Removing a protected class like this crosses a new threshold in the destruction of civil rights in the United States, and sends a clear message that there is no "too far" for this campaign.
