about

The time is now to abolish prisons.
Don't wait for Abraham Lincoln to write an Emancipation Proclamation.
2.5 million locked up, families terrorized and separated, tear gas deployed, drones launched, bombs dropped. We live in a global prison. Time to abolish it. Attica was half a century ago, how much more time do you all need in order to understand?
Listen to Mumia.
Listen to Angela.
Free all prisoners; give them love, food, shelter, employment, treatment instead of punishment. Same cost--many tens of thousands a year, per person. We have the money--do we have the willpower?

Bump these tracks while you dismantle the machine.

Lyrics to "Don't Take Drugs" written while incarcerated Summer 2014 at age 19.

Thank you to all artists who are sampled in this work. No money is earned for these pieces.

This album is the musical partner piece for the book "Abolish Prisons Now," available for sale under in the "Books" section.
