South Chicago ABC

Hey folks,

I recently had the privilege of hanging out with Anthony Rayson, the driving force behind the prison abolition group, South Chicago Anarchist Black Cross. I got to see Anthony’s impressive zine collection and hear about some of the folks in prison that he is particularly exciting about corresponding with. He recommend an essay by Lee Savage, an anarcha-feminist prisoner in Florida to me entitled “Zero to Anarchist in 1.2 Seconds”. To use Anthony’s words, this is explosive stuff. Lee Savage is an insightful and articulate voice from inside, determined to be connected to social movements through her writing. I plan on corresponding with her soon to learn more about her story and situation, and hope everyone will check out her writing.

You can find “Zero to Anarchist” here. 

Also be sure to check out South Chicago Anarchist Black Cross. 

Keep up the fight,

~Abo
