| Abstract: | The article focuses on an interview with Mariame Kaba, an organizer and educator dedicated to ending violence and dismantling the prison industrial complex through transformative justice and youth leadership development. Kaba discusses the concept of abolition in education, emphasizing the need for a restructured society that prioritizes community safety and imagination over traditional educational norms. She highlights the importance of asking generative questions and creating spaces for collective dreaming in classrooms, as well as sharing her experiences with organizing against youth incarceration in Chicago. Kaba also introduces her children's book, "Prisons Must Fall," aimed at fostering conversations about abolition among young learners. [Extracted from the article] |
