Publisher: The Angela Davis Defense CommitteeCall Number: Format: FlyerCollection: Political Prisoners- General Info
Newspaper advertisement for a two day symposium on prison conditions and political defense, organized by The Angela Davis Defense Committee. This symposium offers a space to discuss the ways people see and feel the inequities of the prison system. The hopes for the symposium are to expose the prison system for its brutality, racism, and inhuman conditions; examine the myth of the "criminal"; explain the economic basis of jails and their class nature. The goals are to identify new strategies for political defense that go beyond filing petitions and organizing rallies and demonstrations and to spread the word about other defense efforts being used locally as well as around the country. The speakers- Fania Davis Jordan, David Tijerina, Tony Martinez, Sal Candelabra, Inez Williams, Bettina Aptheker, Warren Billings, Kendra Alexander, Mark Allen, Jesus Maldonado, Fay Stender, Michael Kennedy, Karl Yoneda, Antonia Padilla, Michael Tigar, Kayo Hallinan- will be speaking from personal experience about the conditions in the prisons and the nature of the penal system.
