Abolition Democracy

Reading the excellent interview book with Angela Davis. She's interviewed by Eduardo Mendieta who also does things like serve as the executive editor of Radical Philosophy Review. The interviews are just exceptional as she tackles and unpacks so many of the assumptions of the contemporary mainstream discussion about prison, torture, and the war. As the nature of interview books go, it is relatively light reading, but it never feels like a waste because her language is almost a political poetry, interrogating each question and then, only after examination, delivering one stirring response after another. Apparently, she has a book she's working on called Prisons and History. I can't wait to see it.
To end with a brief quote from the book:

"What we manage to do each time we win a victory is not so much to secure change once and for all, but rather to create new terrains of struggle."
