📝 Book Review & Summary

This book directly answers why abolition is a feminist issue. It maps prisons, policing, borders, welfare surveillance, gender violence, and capitalist extraction as connected institutions.

For FemRes, its value is genealogical: abolition feminism is not a slogan but a political method developed through women-of-color organizing, queer anti-violence practice, and international solidarity.
