Description

From Mariame Kaba, New York Times-bestselling author of We Do This 'Til We Free Us, and social worker Jane Ball comes a powerful book showing the harm that prisons cause and exploring alternatives, gorgeously illustrated by Olly Costello.


In Prisons Must Fall, Mariame Kaba, a longtime activist, together with co-author Jane Ball, present solutions that do not involve incarceration, such as meeting people's basic needs, restorative justice, and community support - seeds for a safe world. Illustrator Olly Costello provides textured images of a global majority community and a grey, monotone backdrop that is overtaken by joyful colors. A gentle but effective addition to all social justice bookshelves and libraries. (from Haymarket.org).


This beautiful book, which has not yet been released, has been autographed by Olly Costello.
