Building a united front inside: Educate, agitate, organize!
June 27, 2021
For the past six years, prison activist Kwame Shakur has worked with caged comrades around the u.s. to found a platform and political line for the Prison Lives Matter movement, establishing a united front to draw activists from outside and inside into the prison movement. The goal is to create a reproducible model for abolitionists everywhere to be part of PLM and to strengthen the fight for a future rooted in shared humanity and an end to the exploitation and unjustifiable incarceration of poor, oppressed and marginalized peoples as well as a decisive end to the prison industrial complex and the private prison industry. We are our own liberators!
