Abolition as Resurrection is a podcast miniseries co-produced and co-hosted by Camille Hernandez and Jia Johnson that is created for the Lenten and Easter season. This podcast seeks to understand abolition without co-opting or inserting ideologies that have not been consistent with the movement. Through interviewing abolitionists, theologians, and scholars our goal is to understand if there is a relationship between the theology of Resurrection and the Abolition movement to discover if we can find a path forward that we can implement in our everyday lives.

What is Abolition: History, Theology and Praxis with Eboni Nash and Jemar Tisby

Abolition is not new. It has a deep history, tradition and praxis both within and outside the Christian faith. This episode will explore the relationship between Christianity and abolition

This conversation with Dr. Jemar Tisby and Eboni Nash wrestles with questions like: what is abolition? What ways has the Christian tradition both undermined and propelled the abolition movement? What histories, theologies and practices can we draw upon for hope and wisdom in today’s abolition movement? For Christian’s eager to join today’s abolition movement, what’s happening within Christian communities who practice abolition, and how can we learn from them? How do we remain authentic to the abolition movement without co-opting or misusing the works of previous abolitionists?
