Greetings Friends, Comrades, and Miscellaneous Others,
Another email from Kersplebedeb, just to let you all know that the
2007 Certain Days: Freedom for Political Prisoners Calendar has been
published, and is now available for $15.00 to individuals - stores
and organizations who wish to bulk order should contact me for details.
Since 2001 political prisoners Herman Bell, David Gilbert and Robert
"Seth" Hayes have worked with activists in Montreal (and in 2005 and
2006 New York City) to produce these beautiful calendars. This year
there has been a changeover, with a new Montreal collective taking
over the outside work. The result has always been a wonderful
collection of artwork and political texts addressing some of the most
pressing political issues of our day.
This year's calendar is no exception. The theme for 2007, suggested
by David, is the broad topic of "immigration" - inspired by the mass
demonstrations in May 2006 and embracing many struggles, from Chicano
liberation in the southern united states to Indigenous resistance in
canada to the targeting of immigrants and refugees for draconian
"security" measures.
Contributors to this year's calendar include Janet, Debbie and Janine
Africa, Gord Hill, Jeff "Free" Luers, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, Alvaro
Luna Hernandez, Josh MacPhee, Tom Manning, Hazel Hill, John Bowman,
Christy C. Road, Irene Monroe, Mumia Abu-Jamal and many more.
Beyond its own value, the calendar is also a worthwhile fundraising
tool - funds raised from this year's sales will go to support the
work of the New York State Task Force on Political Prisoners, No One
Is Illegal - Kingston and Addameer, a Palestinian Prisoners Support
and Human Rights Association.
You can see more about the Calendar - including some scans of
artwork, and info about previous years - on my site at

To order copies, please email me!
Until next update - take care!
