Description
Harm to Healing: A Pathway to Abolition explores the impact of systemic factors on the safety of incarcerated individuals, drawing on the experiences of survivors and the author's own journey. This thought-provoking examination of the criminal justice system offers insights into the correlation between growing up in underserved communities and incarceration.
Through a critical analysis of the language of abolition, Carbajal envisions a prison-free world and sheds light on the lack of safety and insecurity caused by mass incarceration. A valuable resource for students of Carceral Studies, Criminology, Gender Studies, Queer and LGBT+ Studies, Sociology, and Cultural Anthropology.
