It’s not too late: Black Political Imprisonment Symposium

It’s not too late! People in and around Texas, and people from other parts of this settler nation (who can still attend) come to the critical symposium on the subject of Black Political Imprisonment on April 23rd, 2011 at the African and African Diaspora Studies Department in the GRG building, 2nd floor at the University of Texas, Austin. The symposium will serve as a gathering point for Black people to discuss the continued imprisonment of Black radical activist, discuss key questions surrounding their imprisonment, and develop practical steps toward freeing these leaders immediately.

To all Black people who are concerned about our conditions in America, your unique perspectives on the struggle, trials and incarceration of Black political activists in the US would make a significant contribution to a dialogue with activists and scholars seeking to build on historical social justice endeavors.
