#firetotheprisons — Public Fediverse posts

Tomorrow is the International Day of Solidarity with Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners (or, simply, June 11th, because the full name is a mouthful) and we're marking the date with a fundraiser!

Last year we raised almost $900 for freedom fighters inside the prison system, and this year we're aiming to break a grand by donating net proceeds from every single sale we make in-store and online!

Every book, t-shirt, sticker, or other item you purchase Wednesday will generate funds for prisoner commissary, legal defense, and other crucial support needs.

So, grab your next read, and then, if you're local, head next door to The Odd, where BRABC is organizing a benefit concert featuring four bands, local art, and a raffle. For more information on June 11th, check out https://june11.noblogs.org, where you can also find a list of individuals supported by the campaign.

"I wouldn't have made it this far without books. In prison, reading is not so much a means of escape as a survival mechanism. Books become tools of diverse purpose within the penitentiary; not only do they combat loneliness, but they are also barriers against isolation. Books will build you up more effectively than any time spent in the yard's weight pit, and the information they impart will protect you far better than a sharpened shiv."
—Lee Doane, as quoted by Victoria Law in "Books Through Bars: Stories From the Prison Books Movement"

Here's a recent photo we snapped of abolitionist titles being modified before being mailed to an individual incarcerated in the Southeast. Because the facility doesn't allow hardbacks, we were asked to strip the covers, which we did as carefully as we could to avoid damaging the integrity of the book spine.

Prisons take a hostile view of even the smallest forms of care and solidarity expressed for those under their control. They outright ban tens of thousands of titles, only allow books from approved retailers (or *only* Amazon), regularly delay delivery by weeks, and, increasingly, want to restrict physical books entirely, forcing prisoners to access e-books. Banning physical books is a way to further squeeze profits out of prisoners while undermining both solidarity from outside and mutual aid within facilities.

Want to make a difference and learn how people are fighting back against prison book bans? You can join Asheville Prison Books today at 1pm for a packaging party at our co-op!

MALIK IS ON HUNGER STRIKE AND NEEDS YOUR HELP! (picture of Malik and child)
2020 uprising rebel and political prisoner Malik Muhammad is currently being held in solitary confinement. Prison staff took away all of his property and put him in a cell with no bed, no blanket, and no shirt. He has a slipped disk in his back and previous shoulder injuries that make sleeping on the hard floor torturously painful, and he cannot be sleeping without a bed. Prison staff have also been blasting the AC in his cell nonstop and kept it punishingly freezing. Malik has been on hunger strike since May 13 and will continue until prison staff give him a bed and blanket and return his rightful property to him. (photo of Malik)

LIPSK, NIEMCY: FIRMY CZERPIĄCE ZYSKI Z WIĘZIENNICTWA WCIĄŻ CIERPIĄ

https://czarnateoria.noblogs.org/general/lipsk-niemcy-firmy-czerpiace-zyski-z-wieziennictwa-wciaz-cierpia/

"Przed laty firma, którą kieruje Jörg Drews, przekazała 19,5 tys. euro na rzecz AfD. Według starego komunikatu opublikowanego na platformie Indymedia domniemani skrajnie lewicowi sprawcy podają to jako jeden z powodów podpaleń. W sierpniu 2019 roku koparki spłonęły także na placu budowy nowego więzienia w Zwickau. Również w tym przypadku firma Hentschke-Bau była aktywna. Od tego czasu pojazdy i sprzęt budowlany firmy zostały podpalone kilkakrotnie w całej Saksonii. Szkody sięgają obecnie milionów euro."
