A multidisciplinary guide to abolition through the lens of healthcare and medicine. Featuring writings and artwork from more than ten incarcerated and post-detention activists.

The anthology editors, Ronica Mukerjee and Carlos Martinez, are planning to be in the bay area in June/July, and they'd really love to collaborate with Medicine for Nightmares.

Join us tonight for a discussion with Ronica Mukerjee and Carlos Martinez, the editors of the abolitionist anthology “All This Safety Is Killing Us”.

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.

Ronica Mukerjee, DNP, MsA is a psychiatric-mental health and family nurse practitioner and acupuncturist. Dr. M is also an assistant professor at Columbia University and provides both psychiatric care and hormonal care for trans/gender-diverse patients and others.

Carlos Martinez is an independent researcher and political activist from London, Britain. His first book, The End of the Beginning: Lessons of the Soviet Collapse, was published in 2019 by LeftWord Books. His main area of research is the construction of socialist societies, past and present. He is a co-editor of Friends of Socialist China and co-founder of No Cold War.
