One of the easiest yet most significant things anyone can do right now, or today, is send a letter to our comrade and fellow freedom fighter Shaka Shakur. Shaka is genuinely interested in hearing the experiences, perspectives, and stories of his fellow human beings.
The point of the mass incarceration system is to isolate Black, Brown, indigenous, poor, working-class, and all oppressed people from each other. This has devastating impacts on those behind bars and on our ability to build a world without prisons; where we are all truly free. Thus, writing a letter to Shaka is a profound act of genuine solidarity.
Let Shaka know you’re thinking about him, that you stand with him, and that you are fighting—or down to start fighting—for him!
