In the evening of December 31st, we went to the federal women’s prison in Joliette (the only prison for women with sentences exceeding 2 years, in so-called Québec), in Lanaudière region. We held two banners with the inscriptions:

‘The love for freedom makes us enemies of authority’ and‘Freedom is our absolute weapon’. We shot some fireworks, were able to communicate with the women incarcerated and chanted our solidarity. Several of them came out of their units (little houses in the prison yard), or went to their windows. This was the first time of its kind at this prison.

Solidarity with all prisoners in struggle

Until we are all free

LET’S DESTROY ALL PRISONS AND THE WORLD THAT NEEDS THEM
