Join us for a potluck dinner & political prisoner letter writing night, where we’ll be writing birthday cards to political prisoners with June birthdays.

Activists and organizers captured and imprisoned by the State are still a part of the movement; they are unbroken warriors who’s stories should be celebrated. 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 encourage to participate, whether you’ve been writing prisoners for years or are a first-timer.
