Prison Abolitionist
Dr. Robert is the Founder and Executive Director of Abolitionist Sanctuary©, a faith-based grassroots non-profit organization committed to the intersection of religion and abolition. The mission of Abolitionist Sanctuary is to empower Black churches to embody emancipatory theology and abolitionist principles to repair, restore, and rebuild society. We employ transformative justice strategies to ensure the communal flourishing of poor Black mothers and their families. Our nonpartisan approach to public policy equips religious leaders, laity, and communities to redress societal harms caused by discriminatory policing, criminalization, and mass incarceration.
