Content:
'Against the Carceral Archive' is a meditation upon what author Damien M. Sojoyner calls the 'carceral archival project,' offering a distillation of critical, theoretical, and activist work of prison abolitionists over the past three decades. Working from five collections at the Southern California Library (Black Panthers, LA Chapter; the Coalition Against Police Abuse; Urban Policy Research Institute; Mothers Reclaiming our Child; and the collection of geographer Clyde Woods), it builds upon theories of the archive to examine carcerality as the dominant mode of state governance over Black populations in the United States since the 1960s.
