Dustin and TL will share reflections and learnings from campaigns and organizations set up to abolish policing, prisons and institutions with a specific focus on how ableism is a central feature. They’ll share thoughts on the co-optation of disability justice and offer interventions to strengthen applications of disability justice that adhere to anti-imperialist and abolitionist principles.
