An Afternoon of International Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners
Philly ABC invites you to join us this Sunday, from 1:00 - 3:30pm at Iffy Books (319 N. 11th St. #3E) for an important afternoon of international solidarity with anarchist prisoners across the pond. It is our firm belief that political education and solidarity work should extend far beyond the borders of the territories we live in and fight against. In this special event we’ll be hearing from UK-held anarchist
prisoner
Toby
Shone
and
from
a
supporter
of
Italian
anarchist
prisoners
Alfredo
Cospito
and
Anna
Beniamino.

Give Through the Bars 2022
The closing stretch of 2022 with its holidays and festive gatherings is in sight. No doubt, many of you are eager to gift the new Certain Days calendar to friends and loved ones. However, just because the year is winding down into sweater weather and hot cocoa, does not mean that the Anarchist Black Cross Federation’s struggle against repression will be taking a break.
On the contrary, we plan for 2023
to
be
full
of
solidarity,
mutual
aid,
and
freedom
for
political
prisoners
and
we’d
love
it
if
you
could
help
us
get
a
head
start
on
those
efforts.
