Social Movement Prisoners are prisoners who we support who were actively engaged in the work or advancement of social struggle before their capture by the state. For the majority of these prisoners, these actions are what led to their capture by the state. In some instances, members of our social movements end up in prison for other actions, but still have our support. This list is updated as often as possible. If you have any updates to addresses, suggestions for prisoners we should list, please contact us.

Greetings! It’s Anthony from South Chicago ABC. Please send me your complete mailing address and I’ll send you zines from our distro. Take care! @nthony

Hi guys
Can you add our man from the UK to your database : Elija Smith, been on remand for 14 months for decommissioning the EDO/ITT military factory . currently in
HMP Lewes, Brighton Rd, Lewes BN7 1EA .UK A3186AM
Thanks Bob
This database doesn’t include any prisoners held outside of the US prison system, and I think the collective wants to keep it that way. Maybe some day we’ll add a page for other countries.
Actually I see one out of US prisoner- Mandy Hiscocks (she is in Canada).
Canada should be added to the end of the mailing address for letters to get to her, plus the postage costs more if they are writing from the US.
Mandy H has been out for a while.
Yep. She’s been on our “released” listing for quite a while.
There is other anarchist prisoners in tge nation state o Canada that are not on this list though, liie g20 prisoner Eva, and anarchist anti prison activist Nyki Kish
There is also an AIM prisioner in the usa that is not on your list, John Graham, serving life for a crime he wss frsmed by tge FBI for
We don’t typically list Canadian prisoners, as there are better listings that get more updated than ours that folks in Canada keep. It’s hard enough to track the 100 or more folks we do list with current addresses, so we’ve decided to only list U.S. folks. Mandy was listed at a time when we were debating putting Canadian folks on the list.
John Graham is listed, under Indigenous prisoners, though due to a variety of reasons, his address may be out of date. We’ve worked to get a more recent address, but have been unable to find it. So if you have one, just let us know.

I’m curious why the collective would choose to keep it only Americans?
While we will organize support for various cases internationally, our focus is on prisoners in the U.S. because we have limited resources, and with nearly 100 prisoners in the U.S. that are identified as political/pow, and with another 2 million social prisoners, we have our handsful with the support we are providing and the agitation and organization we are supporting amongst the general prison populace.
However, we did make a decision to have an international listing on our site, which should be in existence in the coming months. The only problem with this is dealing with keeping our site fully updated with changes of addresses, releases, transfers, etc. It’s a multiple hour process each week to keep track of those situations in the U.S. Keeping an international listing updated is going to be super consuming of time and resources. But if you or anyone is willing to help keep us updated on moves and changes of address, that would be a real help!

[...] Es común que las y los presos políticos, siempre y cuando no se mantengan en aislamiento total, ayuden a los presos jóvenes, den clases de diferentes tipos, promuevan el desarrollo de una consciencia social y ayuden a resolver problemas entre pandillas en las prisiones. En varios casos, el hostigamiento contra ellos ha aumentado durante el año pasado, como en el caso de Leonard Peltier, quien ahora está en el ‘hoyo’, y Jalil Muntaqim, recientemente trasladado a Ática donde ahora le fabrican una acusación de “pandillerismo”. En el caso de Mumia Abu-Jamal, las autoridades han aumentado sus esfuerzos para lograr su ejecución. Se espera una decisión de la Suprema Corte en su caso próximamente. http://www.thejerichomovement.com; http://denverabc.wordpress.com/political-prisoners-database/ [...]

Howdy Front Rangers,
I’ve been working on a similar website: http://enkidu.anarchyplanet.org You could really flesh out this database with some of these sites.
What about Andrew Mickel; an anarchist arrested, convicted and sentenced to death for assasinating a police officer.

Hello! Would you be able to add Sergey Yefimobich Turzhanskiy to the list? He is being held on suspicion of firebombing a squad car.
His address is:
Sergey Yefimobich Turzhanskiy #768738

11540 NE Inverness Dr,

We’re gonna add them in a couple days. Thanks!
Thanks for building this list. I’m looking exclusively for a list of political prisoners who are opposed to violence, specifically those who abide by the non-aggression principle. Does this list meet that specification? I’ve nothing against anyone on this list personally, but I’d like to promote such a list with people who only support the non-aggression principle. Cheers and thanks for your hard work!
