SUMMARY:Abolition and Liberation: A conversation with Angela Davis and Jamal Juma'
DESCRIPTION:Register at  \nJoin us for an international discussion of the connections between Black Lives Matter calls to defund the police and abolish the prison industrial complex\, and Palestinian calls to tear down all apartheid walls and free Palestine. \nOur speakers bring years of on-the-ground experience and strategic thinking to the conversation. Angela Davis has been an activist and liberatory scholar since the 1960s. Her 2003 book Are Prisons Obsolete? laid the strategic groundwork for the current abolition movement\, as did the first Critical Resistance Conference\, which she co-organized in 1998. \nShe will be joined\, from Palestine\, by Jamal Juma’\, a leading grassroots organizer since Palestine’s First Intifada in 1987. A founding member of the Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committees\, Palestine National BDS Committee\, Palestinian Association for Cultural Exchange\, and Palestinian Environmental NGO Network\, Juma’ is coordinator of the Palestinian Grassroots Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign and Stop the Wall. \nKristian Davis Bailey\, who will be moderating their conversation\, is a co-founder of Black for Palestine and a co-author of the 2015 Black Solidarity with Palestine Statement signed by more than 1\,000 Black activists. He was a member of Black Youth. \nThere has never been a more critical time for this thought-provoking and inspiring conversation. Please join us as we sharpen our understanding of these critical issues and build our capacity for effective resistance!
