We are marching to Angola on June 19th to stand in solidarity with our incarcerated family, and demand that our state, our government, our officials, and our voters show up for those locked behind prison walls not โ€‹justโ€‹ physically โ€‹butโ€‹ legislatively.
โ €
On this Junteenth we ask:
๐Ÿ—ฃHow can we celebrate when our brothers and sisters are still yelling I Canโ€™t Breathe?
๐Ÿ—ฃHow can we celebrate when our brothers and sisters are locked in cells, with no hope of release?
๐Ÿ—ฃHow can we celebrate when our brothers and sisters know punishment like solitary and COVID-19?
๐Ÿ—ฃHow can we celebrate our freedom this Juneteenth, when our brothers and our sisters are still slaves to a system that would rather punish them with violence and then silence their humanity?
