This fall, join Project NIA and friends as we assemble our abolitionist toolkits. In this series, we will explore six different resources that help us build daily practices to move us closer to a world free of imprisonment, policing, and surveillance. Together, we will learn how we can use abolitionist organizing tools and values in our relationships, our homes, our schools, our organizations, and our communities. We will consider how we can deepen discussions about justice, harm, and healing, and we will dive into active ways that we can work towards an abolitionist future that includes everyone.

In July 2020, Project NIA partnered with EFA Project Space to create and co-present the Janine Soleil Youth Abolitionist Institute—a series of programs around the interwoven questions of abolition, justice, equity, transformation, and reparation.

In April 2019, Mariame partnered with Barnard’s Center for Research on Women to organize a panel discussion with local activists and change makers about the meaning of accountability.
