This afternoon’s interview, which should have been my third of the week, has been postponed, but I’m still very excited about the two I did on Monday and Tuesday. I talked with Rowan of Bar None Winnipeg about their prison rideshare project and about prison abolition politics more generally. And I talked with Carol and Sophie about Red Women Rising, a project in which the collective voices of Indigenous women in the Downtown East Side of Vancouver have shaped a document in which they share their experiences, tell their stories, explain the many ways they are taking action every day to survive and to make change in the world, and articulate recommendations for what a just response to the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls would look like.
