[ no cop city - defend the forest ]
Time is of the essence to rally together and #StopCopCity.
In 2017, the Atlanta Police Foundation proposed destroying hundreds of acres of Weelaunee forest to build a massive compound that would train cops from around the world in militarized tactics and urban warfare.
(4/14)
[ stop cop city - tree through cop car ]
The Weelaunee forest is crucial and provides natural protection from flooding, and habitat for migratory animals. Also called the South River forest, it has been a long-time refuge for nearby majority black and brown immigrant communities, poor, and working-class people.
(5/14)
[ stop cop city demo ]
The full Cop City proposal came in 2020 after national uprisings & mobilization around the police murder of Rayshard Brooks. Atlanta officials forged ahead to develop a tactical site to stop mass movements & continue harassment of black poor and working class communities.
(6/14)
[ stop cop city banner in forest ]
In 2021, forest defenders and community members began a long term encampment in the Weelaunee forest. A multi-agency “task force” began arresting those engaged in “civil disobedience” simply for camping in the forest and charging them with domestic terrorism.
(7/14)
[ rip tort ]
On Jan 18th, 2023, additional raids took place with more arrests. 26-year-old Manuel “Tortuguita” Teran was murdered by Georgia State Patrol after being shot 57 times while sitting in their tent.
In Tort’s name we continue the struggle to #StopCopCity.
#JusticeForTort

[ mxgm logo ]
This year’s #RDTW is co-organized by the Philly chapter of the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement–a network of Black/New Afrikan activists and organizers committed to protracted struggle for liberation and self-determination–by any means necessary!
(9/14)
[ mxgm event ]
@MXGMPhilly is also involved with State of Black Philly–a coalition of Black community members and organizations working together to create neighborhoods, communities, schools, and workplaces that are safe, healthy, and meet collective needs.

[ abcf warchest graphic ]
The ABCF Warchest sends monthly stipends to #PoliticalPrisoners and Prisoners of War who have insufficient, little, or no financial support.
Since November 1994, the program has raised more than $205,000.
(11/14)
[ rdtw est 1999 ]
#RDTW events have been happening both inside and outside prisons since 1999.

[first image description: Birds-eye-view of a prison with four walls made of bricks. Barbed wire on top of walls. The bottom two walls are broken down and people of different body types and accessibility are running/walking/rolling out of the prison to freedom–one of them is Gritty on a skateboard. A tree is growing from inside the prison walls with roots extending beyond. The tree is much taller than the walls. Top of tree has a banner that reads “Stop Cop City.” Text on inside of walls reads “Running Down The Walls 2023.” On the bottom left is MXGM logo. It is a circle with the words “Malcolm X Grassroots Movement” displayed in a circular pattern, with an “X” in the middle with an embedded face picture of Malcolm X. The “X” has an “M” to the left of it and “G” “M” to the right of it, to spell out “MXGM.” To the right is the Philly ABC banner logo. The banner logo spells out Philadelphia Anarchist Black Cross with a cross and black fist that stand in place of the “I” in “Philadelphia”.]

Deadline approaching for #RunningDownTheWalls! Your contribution to this fun, but extremely important event provides a huge amount of support to the recipients.
Proceeds go to jail/legal funds for #StopCopCity movement and ongoing support for #PoliticalPrisoners.
(thread 1/4)
Cop city doesn’t just threaten hundreds of acres of Weelaunee forest. It doesn’t only threaten poor and working class communities in Atlanta. It threatens brutality and urban warfare against social movements worldwide.
It must NEVER be built. Not in Atlanta. Not anywhere.
(2/4)
For 24 years we’ve been #RunningDownTheWalls to support and amplify voices of political prisoners representing social movements for self-determination and liberation, that intersect with the struggles of those on the ground fighting to stop cop city.

Until every cage is empty, until every attempt at building a cop city is dissolved, we must stand together and support one another. Join us for this solidarity 5K to do just that!

#RunningDownTheWalls events are happening all across the country on September 17th, that benefit the Warchest program.
https://www.abcf.net/warchest-program/
The fund was first created in 1994, and #RDTW events have been happening both inside and outside prisons since 1999.
thread (1/13)
The ABCF Warchest program currently sends monthly stipends to:
Xinachtli
Joe-Joe Bowen
Oso Blanco
Malik El-Amin
Hanif Shabazz Bey
Veronza Bowers
Eric King
Abdul Azeez
Ed Poindexter
Kamau Sadiki
Ronald Reed
Leonard Peltier
Jamil Al-Amin
Marius Mason
Jessica Reznicek(2/13)
These solidarity events are designed to illustrate, through several collective actions, we have not forgotten our comrades locked up behind prison walls. Runs held in prisons are designed to politicize other prisoners and show that the acts of solidarity have been heard.
(3/13)
In addition to raising funds for the ABCF Warchest, a portion often goes to support other prisoners, groups, or causes of the organizers’ choosing–such as the movement to #StopCopCity. See the individual event details for specifics.

Top of tree has a banner that reads “Stop Cop City.” Text on inside of walls reads “Running Down The Walls 2023.” On the bottom left is MXGM logo. It is a circle with the words “Malcolm X Grassroots Movement” displayed in a circular pattern, with an “X” in the middle with an embedded face picture of Malcolm X.

It’s so exciting that we’re just five days from the #RunningDownTheWalls for #PoliticalPrisoners and the #StopCopCity movement–we can hardly wait!
What’s also exciting is the publishing of “Rattling the Cages: Oral Histories of North American Political Prisoners.”
thread (1/4)
Edited by #Anarchist political prisoner Eric King and abolitionist Josh Davidson, the book includes interviews with dozens of current and former political and anarchist prisoners to raise awareness of our comrades behind bars for politically motivated actions.

Due to be released by @AKPressDistro in December, the book itself is also a fundraiser. Pre-orders from Sept 2nd - 18th go to the ABCF Warchest–the same fund supported by proceeds from our #RunningDownTheWalls 5K–that sends monthly stipends to 15 #PoliticalPrisoners.
