Carceral Family Separation and Challenges Organizing Around Conditions

Sarah Wattar, Micah Clark Moody, and more speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by REAL Youth Initiative, Civil Rights Corps. Jailing people is family separation. Family separation forces pleas, extracts profit, and destabilizes love. Here, panelists will briefly share our personal and professional experiences challenging carceral family separation. Then, we will all discuss strategic challenges, including centering jailing itself as the problem and challenging conditions without resourcing police. The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, July 3-6. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
