> *OUR HISTORY + OUR IMPACT*
> Through advancing a critical understanding of prison industrial complex

> communities to take creative and practical steps to build a liberated
> future. Alongside other abolitionists, we have achieved many victories --
> from successfully stopping the construction of new jails in New York to Los
> Angeles, to ending the use of racist gang injunctions in Oakland and
> stopping California's 20-year prison building boom. Our campaigns, vision
> and strategies have been shared and used as blue-prints across the US and
> internationally.
>
> We invite you to join us in celebrating the gains we have made together,
> feeding our minds and our spirits, and preparing for the pitched battle of
> the next 20 years. Every donation, ticket or sponsorship will amplify the
> vision of liberated communities and the fierce, joyful will of our people
> to fight to win.
