Mn-prog-events Mailing List: 10/24, 7pm: Move Marie Campaign Launch, Political Prisoner Letter Writing Party & Dessert Till it Hurts

[luce guillen-givins (luce]

How can you fight activist repression, connect with others in our
community who care about political prisoners, and environmental issues,
have your cake and eat it too? Come join us at the Minnehaha Free Space
for International Move Marie day, to kick off the campaign to have
political prisoner Marie Mason moved out of the highly restrictive
maximum security unit at FMC Carswell, and work towards abolishing the
unit altogether.

When: Thurs. Oct 24, 7pm
Where: Minnehaha Free Space, 3747 Minnehaha Ave, Mpls

There will be letter writing games, lively (we promise!) presentations
about the campaign & Marie herself; Lynne Stewart, the radical lawyer
who is currently being denied compassionate release from Carswell; and
what we can do to continue the fight against Monsanto, a struggle for
which Marie lost her freedom in the first place.

We promise conversation and dessert a plenty, and it's free, family
friendly, and open to the public.
