The Abolitionist Curriculum

30th September 2022|Learning Tool

“The name “Abolitionist Curriculum” is intended to evoke both the historical and ongoing struggles of resistance to systems of oppression and their legacies, such as the transatlantic slave trade, apartheid, and the prison industrial complex, as well as encouraging its readers to think about abolition happening in tandem with creation: creating new knowledges, new ways of thinking and being, and new methodologies. The Abolitionist Curriculum is intended, in part, to give its readers some greater context around issues being elevated within the #BlackLivesMatter movement, such as colonialism; slavery and its legacies, mass incarceration; police and state brutality; and the cultural functions and possibilities of studying our histories, the realities of the present, and the potentialities of our futures.”
