September 10: Rally Against Prison Slavery

“The walls of Jericho WILL FALL”

Prisoners have called for a national workstoppage and protest to begin on the 45th anniversary of the Attica Uprising.

In Wisconsin, prisoners started a protest against solitary confinement called Dying to Live in June, which has continued until this day.

We will protest the use of solitary confinement, protest prison slavery, and protest white supremacy in solidarity with both the Dying to Live hunger strikers, and prison rebels everywhere.

More details TBA soon!
