Join Deep Green Resistance Colorado for this month’s political prisoner letter writing night. December’s event will be centered around sending seasonal greetings in the spirit of solidarity to our incarcerated comrades. We will provide all of the supplies necessary, including an array of art that has been generated from within the DGR community where we can compose our messages of support. Refreshments will be provided.

**For this event only, there will be a 10% discount on every regularly priced book @ Left Hand Books**

Why is DGR committed to writing letters of support to political prisoners/prisoners of war?

Activists and organizers captured and imprisoned by the State are still a part of the movement; they are unbroken warriors whose stories should be celebrated. We recognize that there is a war going on, and this war is not one sided. Kept behind bars for the strength of their convictions, letters and cards of support may be the only contact prisoners have with the larger movement. By corresponding with them and telling their stories, we not only normalize resistance and build networks of solidarity and support for those imprisoned, we also actively help to create a culture of resistance. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate, whether you’ve been writing prisoners for years or are a first-timer.
