| dc.description.abstract | Feminist scholarship and advocacy in philosophy has gone far in demonstrating that the personal is, in fact, philosophical. Yet this fact doesn’t always match up with the accepted norms, practices, and modes of engagement that dominate many professional settings. It’s not a secret that many people who argue for the abolition of the prison industrial complex are themselves survivors of violence. Indeed, in their co-written book No more police, Mariame Kaba and Andrea Ritchie write, “We are prison industrial complex (PIC) abolitionists not only because our work and research show us that this is the clearest path to greater safety for our communities; we are also abolitionists because we are both survivors” (Kaba and Ritchie 2022). | |
