Abolition Addresses Murder/ Manslaughter

abolition is for everybody

On episode 5, Abolition Addresses Murder/ Manslaughter, Adam, Crystal and Ra hear Dan's story. Dan is a currently incarcerated individual whose actions led to the death of his bestfriend, Jr. Together, the hosts talk about the lineage of harms that led to Dan's own participation in the cycle, as someone who was charged with manslaughter. We also discuss the failures of our systems as a vehicle for rehabilitation and intervention, and the type of care and insight that is most responsible for creating a new pathway.

In this season of Abolition is for Everybody, we talk about harm–what creates it, what recycles it, and how we can find our way to meaningful means of repair. To do this, we talk to folks who have caused harm, folks who prevent it, folks who experienced it, and we learn a lot about how often harms intersect, or grow from the same root. We're excited to have these conversations with you!
