On August 5th at 3:30 pm there will be a rally in solidarity with the recent prisoner hunger strikes in California. We will meet at the Federal Building in Salt Lake City (125 s. State St). Please join us in amplifying the prisoners’ voices and bringing attention to an unjust prison system.
The prisoners’ demands include:
1. End Group Punishment & Administrative Abuse
2. Abolish the Debriefing Policy, and Modify Active/Inactive Gang Status Criteria
3. Comply with the US Commission on Safety and Abuse in America’s Prisons 2006 Recommendations Regarding an End to Long-Term Solitary Confinement
4. Provide Adequate and Nutritious Food
5. Expand and Provide Constructive Programming and Privileges for Indefinite SHU Status Inmates.
