abolition feminism

Abolition feminism is a movement that seeks to dismantle systems of oppression, particularly focusing on ending practices like incarceration, policing, and the criminal justice system that disproportionately harm marginalized communities, especially women of color. It emphasizes addressing the root causes of issues such as violence, poverty, and inequality, advocating for transformative alternatives that prioritize community well-being and safety. The movement recognizes that traditional punitive systems often reinforce inequality and aims to replace them with approaches centered on healing, social support, and justice that are inclusive and equitable for all.
