Dr. Jason Sole - Abolition for Public Health (from Live Event)

Host Jeremy Quinby partners with Dr. Jason Sole again for a live discussion about the need to put an end to systems of harm especially for BIPOC and LGBTQ communities in the U.S that our degrading our public health. Jason shares stories from his journey through the criminal punishment system, harm he experienced both at the hands of police and in the prison industrial complex, as well as the mistakes he made and the triumphs that allowed him to become the father, son, sibling, professor and caretaker that he had envisioned for himself.
Together they discuss how our current systems of policing and justice harm our health as a society, and what is being done through abolitionist practices and organizing to improve well-being, and how similar it is to networks being developed in integrative health.
