Abolition is both a long-term vision and a current practice in our lives as individuals and members of communities. We must recognize the ways in which we enact and protect the white supremacist global order and the school to prison pipeline.

It was powerful when Ki said instead of filling kids with our knowledge, we should extract what already exists in them. Also the idea of kids being the ones to start the revolution. I agree and in my humane education work we call them "solutionaries."
