Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox organization 8 to Abolition is a police and prison abolition resource created during the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 following the murder of George Floyd.[1][2][3]

Formation

8 to Abolition was created in response to the 8 Can't Wait campaign created by Campaign Zero.[4][5][6] The co-authors are Mon Mohapatra, Leila Raven, Nnennaya Amuchie, Reina Sultan, K Agbebiyi , Sarah T. Hamid, Micah Herskind, Derecka Purnell, Eli Dru, and Rachel Kuo.[1]

8 to Abolition states that they believe the 8 Can't Wait campaign is "dangerous and irresponsible, offering a slate of reforms that have already been tried and failed, that mislead a public newly invigorated to the possibilities of police and prison abolition, and that do not reflect the needs of criminalized communities."[1][7]

  1. Defund the police
