We Are
Compassion For Everyone
Working to make a difference in the areas of human rights, civil rights, and the upholding of constitutional rights for those who are wrongfully targeted, prosecuted, convicted, and made to endure endless suffering under the guise of "justice."
Our Purpose
We are a collective focused on advocating for abolitionism through the creation of various forms of art, apparel, and educational resources. We stand for reformed approaches to how our society deals with offenses, with an emphasis on transformative justice. Together, by sharing these printed messages, we can raise awareness and make a difference.
​
Abolitionism of:
Police, in Their Current Capacity
because the way in which police govern society lacks ethics, fairness, and God-given rights. Police officials enforce fallacious laws with little to no regard for how this permanently changes and impacts a person's life. The allocation of funds should be directed away from institutions that cause harm, such as police forces that have a history of killing, caging, and controlling communities, while simultaneously directing funds into community-based programs focused on supporting and uplifting people, to prevent and interrupt conflict at its core.
​
Prisons/Incarceration
because prisons do not deter crime or erase the past / a person's worth is not the sum of their worst offense / and incarcerated individuals are:
+ dehumanized
+ humiliated
+ indignified
+ isolated
+ unheard
+ violated
+ unsafe & unprotected
+ stripped of basic human needs & rights
​
The Death Penalty
because forced death is never okay. Strapping someone to a table and injecting poison into their veins until they die:
​
+ is not justice
+ is not closure
+ is not justified
+ is not humane
+ creates more victims
+ avoids the real issue
​
The only instance when taking someone else's life would ever be justifiable is if it happens during a life-threatening altercation to prevent a person from killing you or someone else. This is considered self-defense. Any forced death that occurs at any other point, or in the foreseeable future is not deemed as an act of retribution but instead constitutes murder, no matter how legislature tries to justify it or spin the narrative.
​
Totalitarianism
​
because a government that attempts to assert total control over the lives of its citizens is unconstitutional and unlawful. In recent years, the U.S. government has exceeded its lawful authority and violated many provisions of the U.S. Constitution, including the Bill of Rights. The government's overreach has gone beyond the scope of its powers and has encroached upon individual rights and freedoms that are guaranteed to us all under the U.S. Constitution.
​
We believe every individual has a distinct story and has encountered obstacles in life unique and different from anyone else that has lead them down their particular life path. We believe every person should have a voice and their story acknowledged. We believe every person deserves second chances, irrespective of their transgressions. We support the eradication of prisons and advocate for criminal justice reform, recognizing the need for decarceration and rehabilitation vs incarceration and criminalization. We advocate for reformed approaches to how our society deals with offenses, with an emphasis on transformative justice. We stand for forgiveness, recognizing that, just as God has forgiven us despite our shortcomings, we should extend the same compassion to others.
