The only point of connection that democrats and republicans agree on across the board is locking up ppl from disadvantaged communities, especially young Blk ppl #burntheprisons #lumpen #lumpenproletarian #lowerclass #prisonclass

Every ICE agent upholds oppression, Fk'em -- but speaking as a Blkm, Black agents betray our people's struggle in this nation most deeply. Our history in this nation demands better #burntheprisons

VOTING RIGHTS: Jailhouse Lawyers Speak holds that people in prisons should have the option to vote in all elections.

Stripping away this basic right only upholds and supports the foundation of white supremacy in this nation #right2vote #burntheprisons #prisonershumanrights

When prisoncrats walk through civilians in prison, we feel like an animal in a damn zoo being observed for entertainment purposes. As the visitors point and whisper all wide eyed like shit #burntheprisons

Thank you to @IWOC_ for keeping up the comm bridge w/prisoners in different states that plan to participate in the #shutemdown

We've added prisons in six other states that will be participating #burntheprisons

This is step one [education/uniting] to a larger upcoming call! We are just warming up!

We'll be paying attention all day to our notices from our fellow prisoners from Florida. Any info regarding deaths we will share #burntheprisons

We can't for the world understand why organizers would claim to be prison abolitionists but campaign & vote for ppl that are clearly about building jails, prisons, and police budgets! Foh #burntheprisons

Atleast 6 prisons in two different states have announced that wearing Black wrist bands during Black August this year is a ticket/infraction.

The last few weeks have been hellishly hot in many jails and prisons and heavy lock downs. There is nothing humane about these cages. #BURNTHEPRISONS 🔥🔥🔥⛓️

The struggle for abolition is a constant push & pull. One moment, we think progress is made, only to see ppl turn around & perpetuate the same harmful systems. Activism requires consistency & commitment to dismantling oppression, not just convenient outrage #burntheprisons

Reality check --this thang you all have misnomer "mass incarceration" started when the 13th amendment was passed. This was in response to the so called emancipation of new afrikans from US traditional plantations #burntheprisons 🔥⛓️🔥
