Dearest killjoys,
It’s been a while! Since our Biennale event at Pari, we’ve been resting and focusing on our separate lives. Time will tell to see if FKRG will continue on, maybe in a different form, or maybe after a prolonged break.
Thank you to everyone who came, witnessed, and engaged with our event. We talked about prison abolition and how carceral ways of thinking restrict the lives and imaginations of many.
Here are some resources that we drew upon:
Carceral Capitalism by Jackie Wang
‘Alternatives to (Disability) Incarceration’ in Disability Incarcerated by L. Ben-Moshe
Belonging to bad: Ambiguity, Parramatta girls and the Parramatta girls home by Corrinne Franklin
Counter-carceral acoustemologies: Sound, permeability and feminist protest at the prison boundary by Emma K. Russell and Bree Carlton
Beyond Prison by Ellen O’Brien
Community Defense: Sarah T. Hamid on Abolishing Carceral Technologies
We’ll keep you posted as we rest and think about how to keep the killjoy spirit alive.
