DATE: Tuesday, August 31
TIME: 6-8pm PT
WHERE: Zoom webinar (register below)
The 2021 Shut Em Down call to action by Jailhouse Lawyers Speak (JLS), a national collective of imprisoned persons fighting for human rights, calls for "an immediate end to racist gang enforcement laws targeting Black and brown humans."
Join us for a panel with formerly-incarcerated people and attorneys to learn more about how CDCR uses Security Threat Groups (STGs) to criminalize prisoner organizing, dissent, and survival; from the Black Panther Party to the historic Agreement to End Hostilities reached during the California prison hunger strikes of 2011 and 2013, to today in CTF Soledad.
Co-Sponsors: National Lawyers Guild - SF Bay Area Chapter, Underground Scholars, Anti Police-Terror Project, Oakland Abolition & Solidarity, No Justice Under Capitalism, CA Families Against Solitary Confinement
