From Florida Abolitionist Gathering

February 28th-March 2nd | Gainesville, FL

The South is filled with long histories of resilience and resistance. We understand it is crucial to resist blatant fascism while simultaneously cultivating the world we wish to see blossom in its ashes. Our mission for the Florida Abolitionist Gathering (FAG) is to offer a space to connect, share, and learn from each other’s stories and strategies. Through this gathering we hope to generate new possibilities for what can, and must, be done to advance the goals of abolition and destroy what stands in our way. Join us in so-called Gainesville, Florida on February 28-March 2, 2025 to build bonds, learn skills, share stories, grieve and love together, embody resistance, and collectively dream of liberation with others.

Call for Proposals

Calling all southeastern abolitionists, anarchists, antiauthoritarians, community/mutual aid organizers, antifascists, radical queers, and anyone interested in collective liberation!

If you have a proposal for a workshop, training, discussion, ritual, meet-up, or other event, please share your ideas in our call for proposals. We are especially interested in seeking submissions about inside-outside organizing, jail and prison comms, anti-colonial action, migration, food justice, bodily autonomy, hormonal care, disaster relief, fat liberation, art within our movements, and more.

FAG enthusiastically welcomes autonomous action in co-creating the spaces and conversations that feel important to you. We welcome suggestions for workshops, programming, accessibility needs, and more. Abolition is an expansive practice that intersects with every movement for liberation, and thus we aim for many different movements to be represented here. This is a collaborative experience and we want to know what you and your comrades wish to experience. Which skills needs developing, which tactics need spreading, which collectives, campaigns, or movements need support and care right now? We want this gathering to act as a bridge for our needs and desires so we can collectively cultivate the soil for fertile resistance in Florida and the South.

Deadlines for proposals are December 15th. If you need more time please reach out!
