The Prison and Theory Working Group (PTWG) was founded in 2014 by a group of scholars and activists committed to prison abolition. Members of PTWG wrote "10 Key Points" collaboratively during in-person and virtual meetings over several months in 2014 and 2015. This collectively authored work is the first document that the group has produced. PTWG continues to work toward prison abolition, holds open events and workshops, and maintains a bibliography of work by currently and formerly incarcerated writers, which can be found at http://ptwg.org/.
