Please read to the end. In jail, we became close with the kindest, fiercest women I've ever met. They welcomed us, taught us how to survive, eagerly learned about Palestine, fully supported our reasons for being in there (they found our actions more righteous + logical than a lot of people in the "movement" did), and shared moments of joy + laughter despite being indefinitely locked inside a brutal dungeon. They are women facing down life in prison, bullshit charges, state kidnapping of their children, medical neglect, pregnancy while incarcerated, malnourishment, horrific conditions, and abuse. Women who are already resisting because they have never had any other choice. We got released right before Christmas, after serving 40 days, and even though it was such a short time I still have no idea how to put the experience into words, but I'm committed to trying, because when we left, our friends told us to tell the world the truth about what is happening inside. The truth is that all prisoners are political prisoners, and we are failing them. The carceral system in the U.S. is a form of genocide. We need them all to be free. We need to rebuild a radical popular movement in support of our prisoners like there is in Palestine. We're raising some funds to add $ to our friends' books so they can make phone calls, use their tablets, and buy food and hygiene products from commissary. As anyone who has been inside knows, everything is overpriced and adds up quickly, $ is scarce for most people, and having some extra $ on your books makes a big difference in daily life. Everything raised will be sent directly to their commissary accounts. Please donate and share ❤️ more soon #FreeThemAll gofund.me/944b0ff4
