Vea reviewed Becoming Abolitionists by Derecka Purnell
Review of 'Becoming Abolitionists' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
An incredible read. Purnell provides a great ratio of stories to statistics, and every piece of information makes a compelling case for abolition. This was not an issue I had any prior education on, but the author connected abolition to many topics I did have experience with, such as environmentalism and LGBT rights. It was especially enlightening for me, someone who has had very few interactions with the police, as to how awful having to deal with them can be.
