These two new anthologies chronicle the tenacious and multifaceted 
work of prisoners and their allies in the fight for freedom. Real 
Cost of Prisons Comix presents how hundreds of thousands of prisoners 
and their allies have made the grisly facts and devastating effects 
of mass incarceration accessible through comics. With a two-decade 
sweep, Let Freedom Ring chronicles the essays, analyses, histories, 
interviews, resolutions, People's Tribunals verdicts, and poems by 
and about the scores of U.S. political prisoners and the campaigns to 
safeguard their rights and to secure their freedom. Longtime 
activists and authors Ashanti Alston and Rita 'Bo' Brown, along with 
author Ruth Wilson Gilmore join the discussion.
