Prisoner Letter Writing and Film Screening

Saturday, April 21, 9:30am-12:30pm, Northside Branch Library, 1423 N. High St.

Cages are disabling and traumatizing environments. As a result, prisoners suffer from low morale. They also suffer from a variety of human rights abuses committed by jail and prison officials such as torture and “extremely poor-quality health care.” These forms of violence are state-sanctioned. Therefore, we can’t expect meaningful oversight of Ohio’s concentration camps to come from the state.

Please bring a friend and join us in Room 1 for the 25th Anniversary of the Lucasville Rebellion. A film screening of “Prison Riot, U.S.A” will precede our ninth letter-writing event. This film is about one of the longest prison uprisings in U.S. history. After the film, we will send birthday cards to Adrienne and Auria. Both were sentenced to life in prison.
