'This is an essential and incendiary political and philosophical reflection on current global resistance movements. A collection of powerful narratives rooted in the liberation strategies of those who struggle against corporate and state conquest, brutality and death and who continue to resist' -- Ken Fero, radical filmmaker and convenor of The People's Tribunal on Police Killings 'Makes plain the relations between the U.S. as a militarized carceral police state, the imprisonment of our resistance, and the genocidal wars our technocracy imparts to the world in Gaza and beyond. This is a work of radical care and love, a study guide for the urgency of the moment where we must fight, to live, and to struggle' -- Dian Million, author of Therapeutic Nations, Healing in an Age of Indigenous Human Rights 'True to its title, this eye-opening book holds its readers steady while guiding us through a perturbing confrontation with counterinsurgency in empires proxy wars, colonies, prisons and schools. Cop cities emerge as domestic forts to contain an unlikely enemy us. But were neither helpless, nor alone' -- Frances Madeson, writer, author of Cooperative Village 'A powerful collection that reminds us that the progress we build toward liberation must be constantly defended. Rooted in a radical sense of love, care, and self critique, this collection brings together necessary conversations and analyses surrounding our movements' -- Momodou Taal, The Malcolm Effect Podcast 'Woven to form a radical tapestry that leads the reader into and through vibrant sites of insurgency, life-making, and struggle against the crushing force of fascism, imperial rot, and racial capitalism' -- Lara Sheehi, author of From the Clinic to the Streets: Psychoanalysis for Revolutionary Futures 'Spanning geographies and different approaches to organizing, these essays consistently demonstrate that the struggle for abolition is a global Black struggle. Abolition breaches the gates of reformist logics of all sorts to articulate a radical account of community-making and to offer us a different account of what living better collectively together can be' -- Rinaldo Walcott, author of On Property: Policing, Prisons and the Call for Abolition
