Tune into Audio Interference’s new podcast series Archiving Abolition
|
|
Archiving Abolition, a mini series of podcasts, explores abolition and the many ways folks communicate and cultivate deep relationships with one another across prison walls. The series is made in collaboration with Survived and Punished NY, a coalition of defense campaigns and grassroots groups committed to eradicating the criminalization of survivors of domestic and sexual violence, and the culture of violence that contributes to it. The six-part series includes messages from folks inside, as well as an interview with Survived and Punished volunteers that contextualizes their organizing work.
In the series, we engage with the questions: how do we document and preserve the work of inside/outside organizing so it is useful to the work of abolition in other geographies and temporalities? How can the act of archiving honor the inside/outside relationships that are foundational to abolition? You’ll hear recorded conversations, interviews, and songs that document these inquiries.

More about this project:
Archiving Abolition stems from the Interference Archive Audio Working Group’s newest project, where we’ve been reading and thinking about what accessibility means in the context of our social and political movements. If we accept that our institutions are designed in a way that structurally includes some people, and excludes others, how do we shift, reshape, or redesign structures and institutions to create more and better access? What does access look like and how do we achieve it? We aim to design our Spring 2021 episodes around answering these questions.

Based on Interference Archive’s online exhibition of the same name, Walkout: A Brief History of Student Organizing focuses on how student organizing emerged in the post-World War II era as the avenue through which postwar generations could participate in public dialogue and critique existing systems, becoming voices of change. Organized by decade, materials in this publication focus on student organizing in the United States but make reference a the broader global context of student protests in France, Brazil, Japan, Mexico, and Canada.
