Hey all!

YouTuber F.D Signifier published a 2 hour documentary about the police, prisons, and abolition last week. It's an incredible piece, and I had the honor of being interviewed as the media expert pretty extensively. Most of what is said in this conversation is stuff I've said in other videos, but the video itself and the context he puts around it is one of the best discussions of abolition I've seen on the platform.

Another horrifying, enraging, and deeply important video from FD. I was so excited to see you in it I turned into the Leo DiCaprio meme alone in my office. You did a fantastic job, as always, both of you have an amazing ability to educate, and I’m so grateful to learn from your videos ❤️
