The Lives and Deaths of Tony McDade and Malik Jackson
McDade and Jacksonâs tragically intertwined lives tell the story of a society that feeds on and maintains oppression through punishment, violence, and isolation. They also show us a way out. Malik Jackson and Tony McDade, illustrated by Richard A. Chance.
On the morning of May 27, 2020, two days after George Floydâs murder prompted an uprising against anti-Black state violence, thirty-eight-year-old Tony McDade was shot and killed by a Tallahassee police officer, after McDade fatally stabbed twenty-one-year-old Malik Jackson.
McDadeâs name rang out at protests across the United States last summer. He was even invoked by former President Barack Obama. McDade was a trans man, and LGBTQ+ activists connected his death to those of other trans victims. Still, his name faded in comparison with other victims of police violence like Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
We Don’t Need Prisons to Make Us Safer

To the statement that prisons provide safety, we should ask, “Safety for whom? And from what?”
The United States now has 2.3 million people behind bars of some form or another. These are not 2.3 million isolated individuals their imprisonment sends reverberations into their families and communities. On any given day, 2.7 million children have a parent in prison. Incarcerating that parent removes a source of financial and emotional support for both children and adult family members. For families who are already in economically precarious situations, removing a parent can plunge them into poverty, reduce their safety, and make them more vulnerable to arrest and incarceration.
