In Sunday's letter writing social we'll also hear from folks from the Silver Lake Neighborhood Assembly who are engaged in a solidarity 'rolling hunger strike' in support of the California prison hunger strike. We'll also be writing letters to the hunger strike leadership - see names and addresses below. WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP STOP THE TORTURE:
Tell the Pelican Bay State Prison (PBSP) authorities to return the 14 prisoner Representatives to their cells. (Their names and prison numbers are below)
Return all their property, especially the legal documents guards have confiscated.
Lift the ban on their attorney, Marilyn McMahon, so that she can again access her clients.
Medically monitor the men to ensure that the prison has not destroyed their health!
