a grassroots movement of formerly-incarcerated people fighting for an
end to discrimination and full restoration
of our civil and human rights.
*The goal of this event is to promote movement building with a focus on
prisoners.
Each movement has prisoners in common and we value our prisoners voices.
When we build bridges with each other our movements get stronger.
We can create a culture of resistance that is supportive and ultimately
more powerful together.
