We spoke to a prisoner last week who wanted to share his account of a racist attack he experienced at the hands of Corrections staff in the Barton Jail. Read more on our FB post. facebook.com/photo?fbid=203…
We wrote a zine about the project, its history, our experiences and our analysis on prison abolition. Check it out and find a link to a printable pdf here: itsgoingdown.org/practical-abol…

Its time to talk seriously about how to stop new prisons from being built in Ontario. Let's keep supporting the demands of prisoners in struggle on the inside while refusing to settle for less than a world without prison in our efforts on the outside.

@TerryWhitehead put out a statement about meeting with @DefundHPS on site last week. He believes we are conflating homelessness, poverty, mental health and policing. That’s simply not true and here is our response. #hamont #cdnpoli #onpoli #defundhps 1/2

THIS. RIGHT. HERE!!!!! @FredEisenberger Could we please redirect some of the funds from our police $urplus to pay Terry to teach #SelfDefense classes to all of us in our #community? This would be so amazing! 🙌🙌🙌
