Each
month we will feature a different political prisoner. Workshops will
include an overview of their history and the circumstances of their
captivity. Participants will be strongly encouraged to write the PP
a letter following the workshop. Donations will also be accepted and
sent along with the letters.
“Any
movement that doesn't support its political prisoners is a sham
movement.”
