Update from Sofia - Life is So Much Effort
From Free Sofia Johnson by Comrade Candle
Hi ya’ll, my mental health is further deteriorating. I’m struggling to attain regular access to hormone therapy again, I’m dealing with the nausea from trying strattera, struggling to eat with the effects of my mental health.
Update from Sofia - Isolation
From Free Sofia Johnson
More sadposting, essentially. Prison is stressful. You feel forgotten about, degraded to a lower grade of human. All that you do feel utterly contemptible to everyone free.
In a way, people do forget about you. You are out of sight and life moves on — jobs and joys mean you are low priority. Everything is either more immediately gratifying than what I’ve got going on or more immediately stress inducing and thereby demands focus, time. All I’ve got is time, as it goes.
Statement by the Anarchist Aldo Hernández
Via Anarquía, English translation by Anarchist News
I write a few lines in which I want to deeply thank the anonymous anarchist support that they have given me, going through these solid walls that today enclose me.

It is important to note that the BOP has held Eric incommunicado since his last legal call. His 20 minutes a week he is allowed to prepare for his case was taken away with no explanation. The BOP is unresponsive as well as the prosecutor who STILL has not responded to this brutal attack.

From seanswain.org
Sucks to be me.
Back in early February, I got the flu. I hugged the toilet for two days. Terrible. In the midst of it, a staffer witnessed me puking and insisted I go to medical. At medical, I was seen by Nurse Amy Starkey who told me I didn’t have a fever despite the sweat pouring off of me… in February.

Help Anarchist Prisoner Michael Kimble Secure An Attorney
From IGD
Michael Kimble is a passionate freedom fighter who has been held captive by the Alabama Department of Corrections for nearly 33 years. After defending himself during a homophobic attack by a known white supremacist in 1987, Michael was arrested, charged with murder, convicted, and sentenced to life in prison. His trial was typical of what could be expected from a racist criminal justice system in Jefferson County, Alabama.
FCI Englewood tries again to remove Erics Visits
From supportericking.org
Eric’s partner posts a blog speaking out about the abuse they are suffering at the hands of FCI Englewood…. She expresses concerns that because of the choice to speak out and share their story, staff would attempt to illegally restrict visits. Staff have been instructed to check his support blog daily as well as numerous newspapers in case any messages are being given to him via the USA Today (lol). 7 hours and 42 minutes later Eric received his first shot (disciplinary write-up) for using the bathroom and being unable to stand for count. 5 hours later he receives another. He received a total of 5 shots in 24 hours. Not standing for count, hanging clothes to dry…
