Please share & donate today so F2L can continue to provide this life saving form of support to our queer + trans + two-spirit BIPOC community inside.
We send commissary because Gay and bisexual men were more likely than straight men to have sentences longer than 10 years in prison. 20% of youth in the juvenile justice system are LGBTQ+.
We send commissary because GLB individuals are 2.25x as likely to be arrested in the last 12 months than straight individuals. Lesbian and bisexual women are sentenced to longer periods of incarceration than straight women.
We send commissary because nearly half of all Black trans people have been incarcerated. Trans people are 10x more likely to be sexually assaulted while inside. People with HIV are 5 – 7x more likely to be incarcerated than the general population.
We send commissary because 85% of LGBTQ+ people experience solitary confinement while incarcerated and LGBTQ+ BIPOC are twice as likely to experience solitary confinement.
Today is the 4th day of the #RikersisaDeathCamp week of of action! Please share + donate to the F2L: Relief Fund: https://t.co/fUVmymTWsr. We've been providing commissary to incarcerated BIPOC in NY prisons and NYC jails since 2015. This was before F2L even had a name.
