Abstrakt: Our writers and artists imprisoned in Canada have a distinctly anti-colonial analysis of Canadian prisons - an analysis we think is essential for all prison abolitionists. In part because of the differences between prison abolition movements in Canada and the U.S., we are excited to use this issue to put prisoners on either side of the colonial border in conversation. In the U.S., the abolition movement often focuses on how prisons are a direct outgrowth of slavery - and this framing makes sense, when Black people in the U.S. are five times more likely to be arrested than white people.
