Call for Weekend of Resistance Against the "Green Scare" June 9 - 11

28-05-2006 01:28

This June marks Jeff Free Luers' 6th year in prison. For the last three years, June 11th has been celebrated as an international day of solidarity with political prisoner Jeff Free Luers. This year has seen an increase in state repression against activists and radicals alike. It is truly a scary time, and in response we need to make June 11th a day of solidarity with all prisoners who stand up for the Earth and animal nations and resistance against those who stand against them.
