Day 49: Families of hunger striking prisoners in California join protests




As a prison hunger strike against solitary confinement nears the two-month mark in California, families of affected inmates stand united. Mana Rabiee reports.


Call Governor Jerry Brown
Phone: (916) 445-2841, (510) 289-0336, (510) 628-0202
Fax: (916) 558-3160
Suggested script: I’m calling in support of the prisoners on hunger strike. The governor has the power to stop the torture of solitary confinement. I urge the governor to compel the CDCR to enter into negotiations to end the strike. RIGHT NOW is their chance to enter into clear, honest negotiations with the strikers to end the torture.
Action Alert: We need a Emergency Hearing to address the Hunger Strike
Action Alert: HEALTH CARE IS A HUMAN RIGHT — EVEN FOR HUNGER STRIKERS!
