Ukraine – The Real Story

Presentation and Discussion

The entire impeachment process was narrowly focused by the Democrats on a few months of Trump and Ukraine last year. But you need to understand how the U.S. government overthrew the democratically elected government in Ukraine in 2014 during the Obama administration in order to see what is really going on. Come to a class where the whole story is explained and discussed. Dinner served at 5 PM, discussion starts around 5:45 PM.

Black Liberation Month Letters to Prisoners

February is Black Liberation Month! Letters to Prisoners is a great way to celebrate it!
Letters to Prisoners has been going strong for many years. We have sent hundreds of letters and cards to people behind the bars. We have forged great solidarity with people on the otherside of the wall. When the holidays come around, it is especially hard for incarcerated folks.
Letters to Prisoners is a fun, educational, and easy way to send solidarity on the other side of the prison wall.
No experience neccessary! We are always looking for stamps, cards, and donations to keep this form of solidarity strong!
Look for the envelopes, and letters, and sign at Folks School!

Solidarity with survivors of CCI lockdown

Join us in fighting the Columbia Correctional Institution (CCI) lockdown!

We will march on the Wisconsin DOC headquarters in solidarity with those incarcerated people surviving the longest most brutal lockdown in years and in remembrance of Larry Bracey, who was killed by medical neglect on December 3.

Warden Susan Novak has implemented fatal policies and enabled abusive behavior by racist guards, as documented in correspondence and reports collected by FFUP and posted to prisonforum.org. Larry Bracey’s death is on Novak’s hands. Allowing her to continue operating any WI prison is irresponsible and a great moral failing. Join us in demanding change!

At 1:30 we will gather at Worthington park, then march together 3 blocks around to the visitor’s entrance on Washington Avenue side of the DOC. There we will demand to speak with Secretary Kevin Carr. We will confront him or whatever staff person he sends out to represent him about the racist violence occurring at CCI and across the DOC under his watch. We will demand an explanation and demand change.
