Campaign launched on Aug 31, 2017
Bloomington ABC hasn't added a story.
Since October 2015, Bloomington Anarchist Black Cross
has been providing consistent
monthly funds to anarchist prisoners throughout the United
States via
our Anarchist Prisoner War Fund. We are now asking for help
keeping this
project going strong into the future.
We have specifically chosen comrades who were receiving very
little money or support from the outside, who have no
familial support, or who
were otherwise in need of monetary aid. These funds have been essential
when some comrades did stints in solitary due to activities surrounding
the September 9th prison strike, aiding their survival in the most
oppressive conditions. We also emphasize support for rebellious
prisoners who have maintained the struggle behind the walls. We
want to
make it clear to our comrades in prison and those taking action
on the
outside that they can continue to struggle without fear of
abandonment if they are caught.
Currently, we provide $40 each month to five anarchist prisoners:
Thus far, we have raised this ourselves through fundraising, exclusively
through the support of local friends and comrades. This constant need
for funds means our other efforts (two prison zine distros, a monthly
anti-prison info night, letter writing events, a widely-distributed
prison newsletter, correspondence and visits with our imprisoned
comrades, sending monthly packages of zines and books to anarchist
prisoners, maintaining anarchist infrastructure in Bloomington, etc)
sometimes have to take a backseat. We live in a small town, and
the pool
of people willing to give money to anarchist prisoners isn’t
large. In an effort to alleviate this, we’re asking
people elsewhere to help us
keep the War Fund going.
All money sent to us will go directly to imprisoned comrades:
consistently to those on our list, and periodically to others
who need it.
If we can meet our goal, we will begin sending consistent funds
to
additional imprisoned comrades.
We thank anyone who donates, and we carry forth the promise of
expanding and deepening our efforts to set our comrades
free and destroy the
prison society that keeps us all confined.
Solidarity,
Bloomington ABC
