LeLe fought back out of self-love and out of defense for her friend and fellow worker. She was punished for this, sentenced to 15 years and is caged, right now, during this pandemic at Decatur Correctional in downstate Illinois. http://titsandsass.com/if-u-only-knew-how-they-were-really-doing-us-inside-outside-communication-during-a-pandemic/ …

It’s only right that we lift up our incarcerated comrades, since this day is so much about resisting state violence and criminalization and also about the state’s repression against those taking action!

We are: -firmly anti-prison, -anti-police -anti-capitalist. We believe we must embody these politics to fully decriminalize survival, dismantle racism, and meaningfully build toward all our collective liberation.

We say fuck prisons, because our friends and comrades are caged and they have taught us to know and feel the horror of incarceration.

We have listened to and learned from so many Black feminists, and through their work, writing and care have raised our horizon line of imagination of addressing harm beyond carceral punishment.

We say
#fuckthepolice, because as the comrades of Critical Resistance remind us: “Instances of police killings, violence, & targeting of Black people & people of color are not instances of "bad policing" or "policing gone wrong." They are the manifestations of policing itself.”pic.twitter.com/rwXtHcVu16

We say fuck capitalism, because our comrades are criminalized workers, or while incarcerated have had their labor stolen 2 profit the prisons & the state, or have precarious housing, or live in places that have been poisoned by land development and environmental racism.

SWers have vital insight to share about building a world of safety and support outside of the state, outside of reliance on cops and courts.

These systems were set up to fail Black people, cash poor people, drug-using people, sex trading people--so let us work toward building a world without those violent systems.

Honor the fact Black women, trans people, incarcerated people, drug-using people, and femmes of color have been doing this work for fucking ever forever!

Has a radical thought about harm reduction and mutual aid come to you in time of need? A Black sex worker probably planted that seed 50 years ago.

Our vibrant and often explosively creative organizing history is often ignored or erased from labor and queer history--and we say, “Fuck that!” We struggle, we remember, we read, we listen, we learn, and we won’t stop!
