“Exploring movements to defund and abolish police through the lens of long legacies of Black feminist abolitionist organizing, No More Police offers an unflinching look at the traps that lie along the path to abolitionist futures, and critical guidance for readers who want to be part of bringing them into being. Add this timely and engaging book to the top of your must-read list.” —Angela Y. Davis, Distinguished Professor Emerita, University of California, Santa Cruz

“More than a synthesis and summation of the conditions of our movements’ work over the last two years, and more than just an abolitionist movement timeline going back decades, Kaba and Ritchie weave together our collective stories, contradictions, tensions, and all, and gift us with a road map to a future free of cops and cages. This is a must-read in the abolitionist lexicon.” —Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, Movement for Black Lives and co-director of the Highlander Center

“Kaba and Ritchie provide a much-needed primer on the demand to defund the police and how that demand can be leveraged toward an even more fundamental transformation of the violence of policing. The authors root their analysis in the reality of today’s movements and offer practical, concrete recommendations that activists and organizers can put to work right now.” —Rachel Herzing, co-author of How to Abolish Prisons

“Kaba and Ritchie are knowledgeable, passionate, and skilled at elucidating complex concepts clearly, without sacrificing nuance. The book is deeply researched and flawlessly argued, and the plan they lay out is practical, compassionate, and circumspect. . . . A brilliantly articulated plan to abolish the police.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“No More Police is a passionate, eloquent condemnation of the carceral policies and mindsets that have long governed America.” —Booklist (starred review)
