Prisoner Letter Writing and Film Screening

Wednesday, May 2, 5:30-8:30pm, 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 a “Season of Emancipation” celebration. A film screening of “The Prison in Twelve Landscapes” will precede our tenth letter-writing event. This film is about the prison from places we least expect to find it. Later, we will send birthday cards to Jessie and Lana. Both were sentenced to life in prison.

Hosted by Central Ohio Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee [IWOC].
