YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat does a society look like without prisons? Professor Ruth Wilson Gilmore has spent 30 years studying exactly that, looking at the connections between slavery, racial capitalism and the prison industrial complex.
As protesters across the United States demand defunding police departments, Prof. Gilmore believe prisons should be a part of that conversation.
Prof. Gilmore takes us through different kinds of frameworks for justice, like restorative justice, and why she thinks it’s time for the U.S. to abolish prisons.
