After 25 years, political prisoner Marilyn Buck is scheduled to get out of jail later this year. Jailed for actions in solidarity with the black liberation and anti-war movements, Marilyn has been a voice for peace, justice and human rights during her entire incarceration. As an anti-racist, feminist, poet, teacher, and friend, Marilyn represents the passion and endurance of women freedom fighters and political prisoners everywhere.
This event features an art auction, poetry, music and speakers: Jewell Gomez, Phavia Kujichagulia, Devorah Major, Maisha Quint, Graciela Perez-Trevison, Yuri Kochiyama, music by Bomberas De La Bahia, and a Dance Party at 10:00 pm with D.J. Kuttin Kandi. All proceeds go to the Release Fund for Marilyn Buck.
