  4. rare misdemeanor charges filed against Ohio prison employees who definitely killed an inmate.

    nurses, in particular, need to face charges and lose their licenses for this kind of shit that happens ALL THE TIME.

  7. Hey, the petiiton is ready to go.

    Here's the thing, in the wake of Seattle's 2020 protests one of the supposed BIG win's was WA's Karen Law.

    The only problem is that a Karen still spends nothing calling the cops and ANY single cop interaction with a false basis could be deadly.

    The legislature reocgnized this be making Karen's liable for police mistakes.

    But shouldn't the STATE also be liable for cop violence?

  11. "Everyone deserves to see the sky and breathe fresh air.

    But the Allan Government’s No Air in Prison Bill seeks to stop people behind bars from having at least one hour of fresh air each day in prison.

    This is a cruel attack on basic human dignity that will disproportionately harm incarcerated First Nations people and other people stuck in solitary confinement.

    The Allan Government must stop shrugging off human rights responsibilities that are meant to protect us all and should abandon this Bill."

  13. «Not Your Rescue Project: Migrant sex workers fighting for justice»

    👤 Chanelle Gallant 👤 Elene Lam
    🗓 2024-11-12
    📔 Haymarket Books 🛒 haymarketbooks.org/books/2258-
    🌐 Website: notyourrescueprojectbook.com

    > A landmark abolitionist primer on migration, sex work, policing, and the “anti-trafficking industry”—and a powerful argument about who is really leading the way toward justice: migrant sex workers themselves.

    > In this impassioned corrective to decades of misguided, carceral approaches to migration and sex work, long-time organizers Chanelle Gallant and Elene Lam deftly expose the harms of criminalization in the name of “anti-trafficking” and lift up migrant sex workers’ organizing in the US, Canada, and elsewhere. In doing so, they make the compelling case that the only effective response to the needs of migrant sex workers must be led by migrants in the sex trade, as they fight for rights, safety, and autonomy.

    > Gallant and Lam illustrate how this movement is taking aim at the root causes of violence and abuse: the white supremacist securitization of borders, the criminalization of both migration and sex work, the patriarchial devaluation of women’s labor, and forced displacement due to climate disaster, war, and poverty—all fueled by racial capitalism.

    > An indispensable exploration of the relationship between migration and sex work—and the underlying societal conditions they reflect—Not Your Rescue Project is a thorough indictment of the anti-trafficking industry as an engine of criminalization and state violence, and an instructive account of the emancipatory politics already being practiced by migrant sex workers in their organizing. Throughout, Gallant and Lam place migrant sex workers at the center of struggles against border imperialism, carceral states, and capitalism—dispelling a range of poisonous myths and paving the way for deeper alliances across movements with the shared goal of dismantling and abolishing carceralism in all its forms.

  20. "For us, prisons have never been a solution, only another problem.

    "Can there be legal self-determination among our peoples? I say yes...First and foremost, this means the abolition of prisons — those institutions called 'Social Rehabilitation Centers.' It means that the offices of the Public Prosecutor and the courts should cease to exist, thereby putting an end to the cycle of corruption to which we have been subjected for centuries.

    "Self-determination is, after all, confidence in ourselves. It is the possibility of governing ourselves; it is the desire to build a different and more harmonious society. From this perspective, self-determination must be understood as the daily work of everyone and a new way of envisioning the future."

    - Jaime Martínez Luna, "Eso que llaman comunalidad," pp. 56-57
