A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Spirituals
Wade in the Water (this version performed by Sweet Honey in the Rock in 2012)
First published in 1901, but before that sung by slaves, exact dates unknown, used as an instruction song by Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad, when you waded in the water when running away, dogs were more likely to lose your scent.

Blues
Jim Crow Blues by Lead Belly
Blues originated in the South, and began to be popularized in the 1870s. Lead Belly became well-known as a virtuosic 12-string blues guitar player and singer; he was active as a blues musician from 1903-1949. The exact first recording date of "Jim Crow Blues" is unknown, but is estimated around 1930. Jim Crow laws enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States, beginning in the late 1800s through 1965. www.youtube.com...
The Bourgeouis Blues by Lead Belly (has the N-word)
Written in June 1937 in response to the discrimination and segregation that Lead Belly faced during a visit to Washington, DC to record for Alan Lomax. It rails against racism, the Jim Crow laws, and the conditions of contemporary African Americans in the southern United States.

I have recommended this book on this and other boards, but: The Wake of Crows by Thom van Dooren. Crows are fascinating and a compelling argument against those who think only humans are sapient. They give gifts, they use tools (incl. fire!!), they mourn their dead.

Or just search for the book on Bay and buy directly from local bookstores. You need to check who the seller is and many of them are explicit charities, but from my experience few to no Amazon “drop ship” resellers deal with books.

We have seen recently how much destruction can be caused to both public and private businesses/buildings, (I in no way mean to confuse the people rioting with protestors either). Could you imagine if there were no police to stop some of what has been going on? Meanwhile a store owner also cant defend himself from someone who may be breaking in with a gun pointed at him?

“I think the idea of police abolition is that we gradually divest from police, jails, and prisons, and use that money to invest in social services, public infrastructure, and other resources that keep people safe without the involvement of the carceral state. It isn't something that can happen overnight, but I think there is an overwhelming amount of evidence that policing is not an effective strategy for reducing "crime." This interview, and the book "The End of Policing," which it references are good placed to learn more about the concept of police abolition.”
“For instance, in a society that doesn't disproportionately invest its resources in police, prisons, and the military, we could provide everyone with housing, health care, education, food, and meaningful work. In that kind of society, I suspect that the incidence of car theft and other property crime would decrease significantly, thereby decreasing the need for a police force to investigate these crimes. This kind of dynamic would snowball over the course of time, leading to the eventual abolition of policing as we know it.”

"In that kind of society, I suspect that the incidence of car theft and other property crime would decrease significantly" is a HUGE hypothetical to destroy a society over. People of all races, ethnicity and upbringings commit crimes. How many college kids get too drunk and do stupid things? They have opportunities. I mean Donald Trump is rich and all, but he is still greedy and would take from people when he can right?

JakeGould:
You know in Japan, police are seen more as a community service and if/when violence happens special officers within the department are the ones that engage the problem?
Deconstruct what the police does and reconstruct it into something new.
Heck, one can do the same with fire departments: You know how many fire department calls have utterly nothing to do with fires and property but rather heath care with people? Tons! Why does the FDNY have healthcare in their service portfolio? Because you need a pumper truck to arrive if someone breaks a leg?
Why are old structures cobbled with tasks that are not their core competency?
And to even better understand it look at the different roles U.S. Marshalls, the National Guard, FBI and CIA and such have. They are all ultimately authorities with some kind of weapon right? But none of these groups murder people for selling loose cigarettes or supposedly passing counterfeit $20 bills.
Only police departments are endlessly making “mistakes” that kill people so consistently like this.

You say “Abolish Police” and that sends a strong message to everyone including the police who — let’s face it — have very secure financial plans for life thanks to their jobs.
Once you are in a career service job like that you will never feel financial pain even if you murder someone. That is one hell of a gig because even U.S. military don’t have anything like that.
