Centering Wellness In Abolition with Marie Tapp

Marie Tapp—teacher, youth worker, mutual aid organizer, and future mental health professional—joins Sanya where we introduce the concept of abolition, and share our perspectives on how the current police and prison systems in the U.S. are not working. We also discuss the changes we wish to see for a better future that centers wellness for everyone.
