We have political prisoners in this country, despite what our government says. And many of them don't have recognizable names. Free Jalil Muntaquim. Free them all. #BlackAugust

When fresh air becomes a luxury #AbolishPrisons

[Jailhouse Lawyers Speak @JailLawSpeak]

Nurses leaving off the wings here dressed down in hazard white suits like something out of a recent nuclear explosion

Prisoner: What's the problem ma'am?

Nurse: Covid, but it's not like we can do anything for you all

Prisoners: can we get fresh air

Nurses and pigs: laughing

[Fellow Inmate🤫 @InnocentCollar]

All prisoners should have access to social media to share their voice!!

[Taina Vargas @tainaangeli]

Hell yes people in prison should have the right to vote. Is this a democracy or nah? Check out this convo I was a part of on @AJStream #DemocracyNeedsEveryone @FreeTheVoteCA @InitiateJustice

Incarcerated Black men and women are more likely to suffer the innumerable physical and psychological harms of solitary confinement. https://t.co/5SZU1dkuxT

Even those prosecutors exploit fear for longer sentences.. Longer sentences don't make sense to crime survivors either

[MI Criminal Justice @AFSCMICJProgram]

Spoke with the granddaughter of a man who was killed by a man in prison we’ve worked with for years - he has been locked up for 50 years. She and her mother want mercy for this man. They want him out “50 years, oh my god, 50 years.” #letmipeoplego @govwhitmer #clemencynow

[PNW Youth Liberation Front @PNWYLF]

Weird how the national media isn’t reporting the fact that over 30 “US” states are protesting tomorrow in solidarity with #Portland and for the abolition of police...

Lots of energy around connecting families via tablets. How about just connecting ppl with their families via releases?

[AG Weyde @justice4jb]

I feel so bad for my son. On top of the loneliness and isolation, he’s watching all these non-violent guys going home while he confronts 8 more years of life in prison. There’s nothing I can say to make it better 😢💔

[Adnan Khan @akhan1437]

Cell phone footage of CA correctional officers not wearing masks and food not being brought to cells.

Note: This is not San Quentin but makes me wonder if this is the ‘next’ one.

[MI Criminal Justice @AFSCMICJProgram]

From over a year ago! My camera roll is full up of my people who did long time and came home. And thrive out here and do good in community. ⁦why? Won’t you let people go? ⁦@GovWhitmer⁩ ⁦@LtGovGilchrist⁩ #letmipeoplego ⁦@mieagen⁩

Dear @LtGovGilchrist

I still remember you speaking at the Parnall Correctional facility...you said:

"I was elected as Lieutenant Governor of all Michiganders and that includes incarcerated people"

We need you now
