The prison is human made and can be human destroyed. This article is a deconstruction of sorts. It argues that we as a society need to burn down the prisons and the precincts so something else can be built in its place. We need to burn down the oppressive logics that capture our imaginations and put radical compassion, love, joy, and empathy in its place.
