The Journal publishes work by scholars, activists, and artists who are envisioning and creating a world without oppressive systems. The entirely grassroots, open-access, and democratically-run Journal just published its inaugural issue, “Abolishing Carceral Society,” which focuses on the detrimental impacts of mass incarceration and immigrant detention and how everyday people are struggling to create a world without prisons and jails. A poem by former CSCRE Asian American Studies minor and IC alum, Sophia Terazawa, is featured in the inaugural issue. Those who purchase a copy of Abolishing Carceral Society help to pay for a copy of the issue to be sent to currently incarcerated people.
