Against Punishment: A Resource

About the Resource

Thank you for your interest in accessing Against Punishment!

Against Punishment is a resource that is anchored in the following principle: punishment actually undermines safety. 

For many years, I’ve been engaged in political education focused on helping people to imagine a world without prisons and policing. I’ve developed and facilitated many workshops and co-created training to give people space to articulate what true justice might feel like for them. 

In this resource, I share some of the activities I’ve developed along with others created by people I respect. I’ve incorporated most of these activities in dozens of workshops over many years. I’ve tried to pull the activities together into more coherent *workshop sessions* or curriculum units.
