George Floyd's murder in Minneapolis triggered abolitionist shockwaves. Calls to defund the police found receptive ears around the world. Shortly after, Sarah Everard's murder by a serving police officer sparked a national abolitionist movement in Britain. But to abolish the police, prisons and border power, we must confront the legacy of Empire.Abolition Revolution is a guide to abolitionist politics in Britain, drawing out a rich history of resistance, from the founding of the Notting Hill Carnival in 1959 to current responses to repressive policing today. Along the road, the authors show how abolition is the key to revolution by linking it with carceral feminism, class struggle, anti-colonialism and borders and immigration.Perfect for reading groups and activist meetings, this is an invaluable book for those new to the power of abolitionism, and can be used as a handbook for those already in the struggle.
