Sparks Fly 2010: An Evening in Honor of Marilyn Buck and Women Political Prisoners

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.
