   We Grow the World Together: Parenting Toward Abolition with MAYA SCHENWAR & KIM WILSON

   In this episode of Speaking Out of Place podcast Professor David Palumbo-Liu talks with Maya Schenwar and Kim Wilson on their new book, We Grow the World Together: Parenting Toward Abolition. They talk about what inspired them to commission a wide range of amazing activists, artists, scholars, and organizers to write whatever came to their minds about the topic of parenting and abolition.

It is this commitment that leads us always to imagine an abolitionist future for ourselves, and all children.
