Published on 27 Jun 2020. A woman spends 40 years in and out of prison for shoplifting and finally gets a break from a judge in her late 50s. She uses the opportunity to abolish a jail and transform her city. This week we look at prison abolition and the arguments for eliminating all punishment from the system. From the denial that we have free will, to the view that perpetuating injustice disqualifies the state from punishing, we look at whether any of us have the right to punish anyone else, and question the very purpose of the criminal justice system.Guest voices include Marilynn Winn, Gregg Caruso, Michael S. Moore, Erin Kelly, and Kimberly Kessler Ferzan.In Slate Plus, Barry speaks to Kimberly Kessler Ferzan about separating the criminal justice system into two distinct institutions, one dedicated to retributive punishment, and one dedicated to crime prevention. Why should there be two systems and what would be involved in separating them? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

“A história de Rute pode ser numa sinfonia um calmo interlúdio, no qual as pessoas amargas de todos os tipos podem aprender a cantar as melodias simples da infância, após longas horas de indesejado silêncio”. (Michael S. Moore) O retorno da esperança Migrar pode dar certo, mas nunca se sabe. Foi trágico para Elimeleque e Noemi, cujo nome queria dizer “doçura”. Com os dois meninos Malom e Quiliom, eles fugiram da fome em Belém, no Israel antigo, atravessaram a fronteira e se estabeleceram em Moabe. Os garotos cresceram e se casaram com duas moças da localidade. Elimeleque morreu antes que a família conhecesse a prosperidade. Noemi o chorou e chorou também os dois filhos, afundando-se em sua justa amargura. Com uma nora sob sua asa, porque a outra fora embora, Noemi decidiu voltar para casa, onde sua família tinha uma pequena propriedade. Para amenizar-lhes a fome, Rute foi colher numa fazenda qualquer da cidade. (Naquele tempo era obrigatório que os ceifeiros sempre deixassem cair espigas e grãos para que os pobres pudessem se alimentar do que pegavam nos chãos.) O fazendeiro, que não a conhecia, a tratou com bondade. O fazendeiro Boaz, Deus sabia, de Noemi parente longe era. (Naquela época o parente de uma viúva tinha que protegê-la, comprando a terra que fora do marido ou se casando com ela.) O fazendeiro, que descendia de Raabe, a estrangeira e prostituta de Jericó, seguiu a lei. Comprou a terra e foi além: com Rute se casou. Quando lhe nasceu o neto, Noemi passeava com ele no colo e pedia à vizinhança que agora a chamasse de “doçura”, porque de novo tinha firme esperança. Obede, seu neto, de Davi foi avô. O rei teve entre seus descendentes Jesus, o Cristo amado em que todo ser humano, não importa onde tenha nascido, é em sua dignidade resgatado. “Noemi pegou o menino no colo e passou a cuidar dele. (...) E o chamaram de Obede. Este veio a ser o pai de Jessé, pai de Davi”. (Rute 4.16-17) Bom dia!!! Israel Belo de Azevedo
