New zine: "Building an Abolitionist Trans and Queer Movement..."
We’ve just finished throwing together a zine version of the first chapter from the incredible Captive Genders: Trans Embodiment and the Prison Industrial Complex, published in late 2011 by AK Press. It’s by Morgan Bassichis, Alexander Lee, and Dean Spade, and it’s called “Building an Abolitionist Trans and Queer Movement with Everything We’ve Got”. We can claim no credit for this work — we even stole the book’s cover image of burning police cars! — but we think it’s such an important call to action that we’ll do anything to get more queers & trans folks & others to read it.
You can download the PDFs at zinelibrary.info, or if that’s not working [have you also noticed it being down/broken at certain times recently?], try these alternate direct links:
ATTENTION EVERYONE: If you like this chapter, please go out and buy the book to support the authors, editors, and publisher! You can buy it online from AK Press, or try a radical bookseller near you.
