Liberation Literacy

Hey ya’ll, we’re back! Since COVID 19 has forced us to explore new ways to support our incarcerated community, we have launched Reentry Resources in partnership with Reed College to help folks getting out of jail/prison! You can book appointments on our website (link in bio)

Save the date! Reentry Resources is hosting an event with Reed college to spread awareness about our new program. There will be musical performances by formerly incarcerated artists & DJs. Stay tuned for more confirmed details in the coming weeks. ♥

Police serve white supremacy and capitalism.

Juries are supposed to be unanimous. But I was convicted under an unconstitutional law. I was convicted by a monument to racism. Today, that monument can and should be taken down by the same person who sentenced me. ow.ly/Tair30rBm6h MT @usatodayopinion @Lib_Lit

We’re excited to announce that the first shipment of @DrIbram ‘s book HOW TO BE AN ANTIRACIST has been sent by @Powells! Thank you again for everyone’s generous donations and we’ll continue to update everyone on where the books are sent. 📚 🌟

We still have many books to send! Do you have connections to reading groups, religious groups, inside-out college courses, or youth programs inside of prison or jail walls? Do you have loved ones who might appreciate a copy? Please message us! We want to send them books 📚

We’ve sent books to @B2PSeattle, B2P Portland, and a reading group inside Marshall County Prison, MS started by @garrett_felber. We’re also sending a full set into CRCI as a part of Lib Lit’s Freedom Library and offering copies to our outside group of formerly-incarnated leaders.
