Becoming Abolitionists

Police, Protests, and the Pursuit of Freedom

Derecka Purnell

Becoming Abolitionists is an eye-opening exploration of the failed attempts to reform the police in the United States. Drawing from personal experiences, Purnell provides a compelling argument for police abolition and encourages readers to envision new systems that address the root causes of violence. Through lessons learned from multi-racial movements across the globe, this book offers an exciting opportunity to reduce and eliminate harm in society.
