Mirror Memoirs Abolition Book Club: Not Your Rescue Project

This event series is hosted by Mirror Memoirs.

You are invited to Mirror Memoirs ABC (Abolition Book Club)! We will meet on Zoom 3 times, on Sundays (1:00-3:00pm PST / 3:00-4:00pm CST / 4:00-6:00pm EST), to discuss different texts that explore interruptions to child sexual abuse and other forms of intimate violence that do not rely on prisons or police, and ways to prevent this violence.

This book club is open to anyone! We are offering free copies of the books to the first 50 QTIBIPOC child sexual abuse survivors living in the US who request them, intended to offset the expense for folks who need the financial assistance obtaining these books.

We are grateful to be partnering with the publisher of our 2026 picks, Haymarket Books, who has given Mirror Memoirs a discounted rate so that we can provide these copies. Here are our upcoming meetings:

  • March 22, 2026 (Not Your Rescue Project: Migrant Sex Workers Fighting for Justice, with co-authors Chanelle Gallant and Elene Lam joining as our guest speakers)

  • July 19, 2026 (How to End Family Policing, with editor C. Hope Tolliver joining as our guest speaker)

  • November 8, 2026 (We Grow the World Together: Parenting Toward Abolition, with editor Maya Schenwar joining as our guest speaker) We will send the Zoom registration link for these meetings to everyone who RSVP's.
