URGENT Solidarity Rally with CA Prison Hunger Strikers 8/22 Oakland 5pm
Are you outraged that California will start FORCE FEEDING people soon??
Come out and show your support for the thousands of prisoners who have participated in this peaceful hunger strike since July 8!
Come show your opposition to the recent ruling that prisoners can be force fed against their wishes!
They need our support NOW more than ever. We cannot remain silent while California denies these people's humanity.
We will meet to rally at 5pm, then march to Jerry Brown's condo on Telegraph and 27th!
PLEASE INVITE YOUR FRIENDS AND SHARE WIDELY!!
