7 incarcerated people were killed earlier this year in Lee Correctional in S.C.
It was the deadliest attack in a prison in 25 years.
Prison Strike 2018 is a direct response to the inhumane conditions inside prison walls, like how 7 people can be murdered with no consequences.

Incarcerated folks across the nation are striking for their LIVES, we need to pay attention.
ICE detainees have, many have joined the #PrisonStrike2018 by going on a solidarity hunger strike.
We can take action right where we are too.
Our struggles are all interlinked.

This is not new, nor even to this moment.
There was a massive prison strike in 2016 and in 2017 there were several major rebellions in prisons, including the #VaughnRebellion in Delaware.

“We know this institution if going to change for the worse. We got demands you need to pay attention to.”
right: Demands for #PrisonStrike2018
The very first one is a call to “recognize our humanity.”
