Social work must be anti-carceral, against oppression, and committed to ending systems, structures, and ideologies that cause people harm, write members of the Network to Advance Abolitionist Social Work in an excerpt from its new @haymarketbooks.bsky.social collection.

Thank goodness for the amazing “Unite & Win” cover from Paul Zappia or else we'd have gone with one of the rejected cover designs. 😅

Mass incarceration rests on false narratives and secrecy that carceral institutions themselves work hard to control. Meanwhile, popular culture and politics reify these untruths.

Writers like Lyle C. Mays are fighting back. An excerpt from 'Witness,' out now from @haymarketbooks.bsky.social.

"Toscano draws especially upon Black radical & anticolonial traditions 4 incisive theories of fascism, not only to make evident that we misrecognize fascism if we limit it to Mussolini’s Italy & Hitler’s Germany, but also to argue that fascism is a formation anchored in racial & colonial capitalism"

Its a good day to be reading about the Haymarket massacre.
(I'll confess I only recently learned about it... I was wondering why is @haymarketbooks.bsky.social called "Haymarket"? and then it kept coming up as being important to the history of Jewish anarchism).

We went through this during Occupy as well. A bunch of people whose previous experience told them the cops could be reasoned with learned through brutality what the police were all about. Abolitionists in Chicago welcomed those folks into movement spaces. That’s how you handle it. Solidarity.

We wrote this book to introduce how China's integration into capitalism transformed its society while catalyzing a destructive imperial rivalry with the US. Lots of reasons for pessimism, but as we show, resistance springs eternal! Available in June
