MundiMuster! Solidarity With the Pelican Bay Hunger Strike



Prison Activist Resource Center.

Prisoner Hunger Strike Solidarity Website.

Democracy Now!:
Thousands of inmates in at least 13 prisons across California’s troubled prison system have been on hunger strike for almost two weeks. Many are protesting in solidarity with inmates held in Pelican Bay State Prison, California’s first super-maximum security prison, over what prisoners say are cruel and unusual conditions in "Secure Housing Units."

People you can contact, and what you can say to express your solidarity with and help out the Strikers.
