“...it is the most militant, most radical intervention anyone can make to not only speak of love, but to engage in the practice of love.

Anytime we do the work of love we are doing the work of ending domination.”
bell hooks, Teaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom

“Prison is, simply put, the bottom rung of the welfare ladder.”
