All This Safety is Killing Us is an abolitionist anthology that unpacks the critical role the medical world has to play in the violence of incarceration. There are contributions from incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people, medical professionals, organizers, and artists. It's a book that starts a much needed conversation—especially here in California where people in state women's prisons were unknowingly sterilized until very recently, prison doctors are continually accused of horrific abuse, and ICE detention centers notoriously neglect people's medical needs.

Tonight join Jennifer Esteen, Clio Sady and the editors of the abolitionist anthology All This Safety Is Killing Us, Ronica Mukerjee and Carlos Martinez, as they discuss this multidisciplinary guide to abolition through the lens of healthcare and medicine. Featuring writings and artwork from more than ten incarcerated and post-detention activists.
