The Palestine you don't know: Thaer Halahleh’s letter to his daughter: "My Beloved Lamar…Forgive me"
The Ministry of Prisoners’ Affairs received a letter from hunger striking Palestinian prisoner Thaer Halahleh addressed to his two year old daughter Lamar, most likely passed on by one of Addameer’s lawyers Mona Neddad during her last visit to the Ramle prison hospital on Thursday,…
Oh, and Obama can suck it.
That fucking fascist still ain’t got this queer’s vote. Fuck identity politics.
Petition for the Davis Dozen
A call for the UC Davis administration to solicit immediate withdrawal of all criminal charges against students and professors
In the wake of the closure of the US Bank branch in the Memorial Student Union, 11 UC Davis students and one professor received criminal charges for their participation in peaceful political protests. If convicted, the protesters could face up to 11 years each in prison, and $1 million in damages.
These charges were brought at the express request of the UC Davis administration, weeks after the conclusion of peaceful protests they had consistently permitted to occur. This same administration’s treatment of political protest as a criminal matter in November resulted in UCD police infamously pepper spraying seated students in the face. With the release of the Reynoso Task Force Report, it is now a matter of public record that this unconscionably brutal act was knowingly authorized without any legal basis. Now the physical harm inflicted by police at the administration’s behest last fall finds its corollary in criminal charges brought against students and faculty this spring, in an injudicious attempt to damage the lives of protesters—many of whom are the same students pepper sprayed in November, and are plaintiffs in a pending ACLU lawsuit against the University. This administration has established a record, verified both by skeptical and sympathetic reports, of extraordinary incompetence regarding legal issues pertaining to political protest by University members.The website also has more info on who they are and more ways to help- please sign and share!
MOST IMPORTANTLY:
CALL the D.A’S office to DEMAND THE CHARGES BE DROPPED.
His name is Jeff Reisig, number: 530-666-8180
You can follow this sample suggested message: ”I’m calling to oppose the use of criminal courts for political protest, and to oppose the charging of twelve people with conspiracy to commit a misdemeanor and obstructing movement in a public place for protest at UC Davis. I urge you to drop the charges immediately.”
We need as much pressure on the DA’s office as we can get. The arraignment is scheduled TOMORROW at 8:30 a.m. If anyone in the Davis/Sacramento area can be at Yolo County Superior Court (Dept 9) @ 301 Second St. in Woodland at 8:30 am, we need court support as well.
Much love, comrades.
Karol Cariola and Camila Vallejo with Fidel.
A meeting of the revolutionary generations!
Too bad Camila is not revolutionary and actively worked with the government to suppress more radical groups in Chile. The media just wants a “pretty” face to jack off to as usual.
