Jess Ison – Prisons and Animals

Sunday, 3 June 2018 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Jess Ison

We’re joined by activist and academic Jess Ison who discusses her research challenging the use of prisons and other punitive measures as a way to counter animal abuse. If you’d like to look further into the issues of prisons and prison abolition, Jess recommends the book Are Prisons Obsolete? by Angela Davis: https://www.sevenstories.com/books/2907-are-prisons-obsolete

 

Jess Ison is a part of The Institute for Critical Animal Studies (Oceania) collective who are organising a discussion forum for animal activists and academics in Melbourne in August. Connect with ICAS Oceania on Facebook or sign up for email updates to be notified of the details of this forum once they are announced: http://www.criticalanimalstudies.org/icas-oceania/
