Mariame Kaba, a longtime prison abolitionist who has done as much as anyone to imagine what it would take to live in a world that does not equate safety with police and cages, puts the lesson succinctly, one passed on to her by her father: "Everything worthwhile is done with other people."

XREF: Links to prison abolition discourse and the broader argument about punitive systems in this work. Connects to collective-action and mutual-aid traditions.
