About the event
Racial profiling, brutality, and rampant corruption in Toronto Police. ICE abductions and murders. Genocide in Gaza.
They all share an infrastructure of state-sanctioned violence that enforces hierarchy and racialized disposability with complete impunity. Abolition insists that no one is free until we are all free—and calls us to dismantle these carceral and militarized systems.
In Los Angeles-based filmmaker Matthew Solomon's Reimagining Safety, 10 experts discuss how policing and incarceration create more harm than good. Join with your East End neighbours to discuss how we can build safety through justice, community care, and collective liberation.
Interviews include:
Dr. Jody Armour - The Roy P. Crocker Professor of Law at the University of Southern California
Nikki Blak - Sociologist, anti-racism educator, and Inglewood born and raised
