DISARM, DEFUND, ABOLISH THE POLICE

⇩ Download

This is a linoleum block print advocating for the disarmament, defunding, and abolition of police and prisons. The re-ignition of the Black Lives Matter street movement in 2020 has brought into common imagination the idea of total abolition of police. Abolition may sound like a utopian pipe dream to many, but you don't get to utopia without advocating for it full force. This image imagines the power of love beyond authority breaking through the violent tools of the state. I made this poster because I asked myself how I could apply my artistic skills to the movement for liberation.
