I'm in the hole right now because they said there was a riot and we set the prison on fire.

It happened because there had been wind storms that wiped out wi-fi and JPay tablets. They didn't tell us what was going on or why it got knocked out.

If you are reading this I'm probably in Segregation as we speak because the inmates aren't necessarily allowed to tell you this, a lot of my homies were transferred to a different prison or put in solitary confinement for saying what's been going on here.

Critical Resistance PDX,

I hope this missive finds you in the Best of Spirits.

I know it's gonna sound crazy to you, but I am glad I got locked up. I needed to get off the drugs. I'm not sure if I could have done it on my own. I'm not saying I needed 7 1/2 years of my life taken from me, but some time was needed.

I don't know where to begin with this situation, but we now have proof that the Department of Corrections––I guess I can't say intentionally, but I believe the word "intentionally" can be used in this situation––intentionally spread COVID-19 through prisoners.

As abolitionists, we are dedicated to the elimination of imprisonment for all people, not just those with “non-violent” charges, but also for those who have done serious harm or have been charged as having committed acts of serious harm.

To quote Mariam Kaba, "A world without harm isn’t possible and isn’t what an abolitionist vision purports to achieve. Rather, abolitionist politics and practice contend that disposing of people...
