ATTICA NOW is all of us. ATTICA NOW means fight back! ATTICA NOW means solidarity. ATTICA NOW performs the archive. ATTICA NOW means that the struggle is not over. ATTICA NOW means that little has changed in over 50 years, so we have work to do today. ATTICA NOW insists on imagination and collectivity. ATTICA NOW means understanding that memory, language, and images are never neutral, so we must use them as weapons. ATTICA NOW does not want you to feel sad for a distant past, ATTICA NOW wants to politicize your sadness today. ATTICA NOW means fighting by any media necessary. ATTICA NOW means thinking of present revolts as incarnated memories of past rebellions that enact futures otherwise. ATTICA NOW invites you to take collective action and embrace abolition to create a better tomorrow for all.

ATTICA NOW is a project which explores the legacy of the Attica rebellion and massacre with the power and complicity of those who are fighting against the prison industrial complex today. It includes an exhibition that activates the Attica Archive, an abolitionist library, and the Abolitionist Artifact: a mobile device designed to inhabit the streets and to be used by activists in protests and demonstrations, which invites the public to interact with the language of abolition, take collective action, and imagine abolitionists’ futures.
