We call on our communities to recognize that abolition is not only about tearing down cages but also about building worlds expansive enough to hold our transitions, our elders, and our descendants.
Julian Wilson
Durham artist, multimedia journalist and organizer, Julian Wilson, has been honing their skills as a professional image-maker for over a decade. His work examines what materializes behind closed doors and in the shadows–both personal and communal. Wilson’s raw and frequently somber style is illuminated by their experience growing up in “the ghettos” of America. Since obtaining his Master's in Visual Communication from UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media in 2023, Wilson has primarily focused on organizing with and sharing stories of transgender people who are impacted by North Carolina's carceral system.
