The foundation of all my work is Abolitionist Science-
Abolitionist science is a novel field I’m developing that that leverages reliable & reproducible scientific research to drive strategy & prove the validity of revolutionary anti-capitalist solutions conjured by social justice movements.
Science is merely a tool but when applied within the framework of abolition- it is a powerful force to build a bold future without walls or cages and with community-led systems that meet everyone’s basic survival needs. We have the science to prove that capitalism is driving oppression & our planet’s extinction. Ecology, microbiology, decolonized psychology & epigenetics, among other fields, show that abolishing binaries, arbitrary hierarchies & social constructs that hinder our evolution (as a collectivist species) is the first step to justice. This framework can be applied to any social justice issue- on an individual & a collective scale.
I only work on issues I have extensive experience & direct community ties to. All the geopolitical topics I focus on are a culmination of ~ 10 years of grassroots organizing (ongoing) & my lived experience.
