#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #Abolition #Communities #OurFutures We want a world where people are free from the Prison Industrial complex (including a corrupted criminal legal system), from predatory capitalism and free to live in safe wholesome communities where our future families can thrive. Everywhere people are trying to envision what that might look like and to take steps TODAY to help make that reality come into fruition. We are envisioning a new world so that we can help build it. 5/5
#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #Abolition #Communities #OurFutures The series is called: A Brief History of the Future. The host of the show presents the idea that we have moved into being a society that just plans for today without thought to the consequences our actions today will have on our future families. He sets off to talk to people around the world who are trying to envision the world they want for their great grandchildren and then talking steps TODAY to help build it. 3/5
#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #Abolition #Communities #OurFutures You can stream the series if you are a PBS contributor or just wait for it to air in your area. He and the activists he interviews share a common thought. You have to envision the world you want and then build it. That’s what my daughter and I were doing. We envision a world where people treat each other as humans no matter what they look like or where they come from. That is the #bolitionist goal. 4/5
#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #Abolition #Communities #OurFutures We were a group of Black American, Asian, Latino, and various Africans . It was a wonderful and heart warming experience. You may be asking yourself what this has to do with #abolition. But it was the beauty of the human community coming together to experience something phenomenal that made it relevant to #abolition. There is a new series on PBS that also is not about #abolition but has everything to do with it. 2/5
#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #Abolition #Communities #OurFutures I was watching our partial eclipse yesterday with my daughter in a local area. There's a row of food shops, cleaners, credit union and nail salons where we were sitting. The employees were getting permission to come outside and see the eclipse but of course none of them had any eye protection. We signaled for them to come over and share ours. In about 10 minutes we were surrounded by workers from four different ethnic groups. 1/5

What better time than this beginning of year to say what you would like your future to look like?

The future of Europe: what do you imagine it will look like?

We invited people across the EU to share their imagined futures. For this collection we, the European Commission’s Competence Centre on Foresight, used a narrative inquiry method. Instead of asking opinions about the future, we asked participants to share a story about their desirable future, followed by a few questions about that story, in order to more fully comprehend their thinking.
