Bill Ayers discusses his recently finished book, When Freedom is the Question, Abolition is the Answer, a collection of essays reflecting on the concept of collective freedom. The book explores the contradictions of modern times, where despair and hope coexist—ranging from wars, police violence, and environmental collapse to movements for peace, women's rights, and environmental justice. Bill argues that rather than fleeing from these contradictions, we should embrace them to understand true freedom. He emphasizes that freedom is not about individual rights, but about collective liberation—achieved when people unite to fight against oppression.
The book's title reflects his view of abolition not as merely dismantling oppressive systems, but as a form of world-building that imagines and creates a society where harmful institutions are unnecessary. Bill draws a parallel with 19th-century abolitionists who had to envision a world where slavery was unthinkable. He advocates for reimagining education and social systems that nurture values like creativity, dissent, and non-conformity, essential for a truly free society.
