The car action is over, but there's work to get done at home right now! We need you. Get your let-me-speak-to-the-manager voices ready to make calls & emails, demanding #MassReleaseNow! Here's 10 things you can do from home to #FreeThemAll during the #COVID19 pandemic: [thread]
1. Demand #MassReleaseNow and #FreeThemAll from Immigration Detention Centers. Email Midwest ICE Director Robert Guadian by signing @OCAD_CHI's petition: https://bit.ly/2JdpSW8 .
2. RT! We urge @GovPritzker to immediately release as many prisoners as possible due to #COVID19. Prisons have tightly packed populations, confined spaces, & lack sanitation, & are petri dishes for spreading deadly epidemics. We MUST #StopCOVID19inPrisons. #ClemencyNow
3. Demand #MassReleaseNow from Illinois state prisons like Stateville, where two incarcerated people have already died from #COVID19. Call Governor JB Pritzker at 312-814-2121 and let your voice be heard.
4. Donate some funds to @ArtsPrison & their rapid response efforts to pay for cleaning supplies including soap & hand sanitizer for incarcerated people in Illinois prisons dealing with #COVID19. You can Venmo or PayPal! #ReliefBehindBars
5. Demand #MassReleaseNow for the 100+ youth currently inside the Juvenile Temporary Detention Center in Chicago. One youth tested positive for #COVID19 just yesterday. You have four different numbers to call, including the Governor again and @SAKimFoxx.
6. Here's one for some NYC solidarity! Tweet at @NYGovCuomo to commute the sentences of criminalized survivors of gender-based violence. Demand #ClemencyNow! Cuomo has the power to do this. Find out more at @survivepunishNY. #FreeThemAll
7. Another phone call, let's do this! Demand #MassReleaseNow, an end to lockdowns, and no more new admissions to the MCC downtown during the #COVID19 pandemic. Call the US Dept of Justice: 202-353-1555. #AbolishPrisons
9. Listen to the audio that @AssataDaughters's just posted about a mass hunger strike inside of Cook County Jail that took place over the weekend. Folks inside were protesting health measures & demanding #MassReleaseNow during #COVID19. https://twitter.com/AssataDaughters/status/1247591854264258563?s=20
10. Demand #MassReleaseNow from Cook County Jail. A few more calls, this time to Sheriff Tom Dart, Chief Judge Evans & @SAKimFoxx. This jail is now the EPICENTER of #COVID19 cases in the entire country. This is not okay. For more info and call scripts: http://chicagobond.org/call-in
