AFRICAAM 278: Carceral Logics & Abolition in Education (CSRE 378, EDUC 478)
Abolition is a complex concept, often moving against the grain in a society fixated on punishment. What happens when we begin with the concept that life is valuable and that concept should be the center of society when building institutions and responding to harm? In this short course, we will explore how abolition has been conceptualized over time, particularly in relation to carceral logics, and how both relate to education. We will explore what educators can learn from community-driven abolitionist projects and how we can apply these conceptualizations and strategies to education spaces towards liberation.
