Abolish the PIG: Internationalist Movement to End the Prison Industrial Complex

Rehana Lerandeau and Linda Evans

Stevenson 101
8:30 AM

This lecture explains the work of Critical Resistance, which challenges the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe. We believe that basic necessities such as food, shelter, and freedom are what really make our communities secure. As such, we are part of global struggles against inequality and powerlessness. The success of the movement requires that it reflect communities most affected by the PIC. Because we seek to abolish the PIC, we do not support any work that extends its life or scope.
