Solidarity Noise Demo

As much as the State wants us to forget, we want to remember. We held a noise demonstration outside the Santa Cruz county jail on Saturday, October 8th in solidarity with the hunger striking prisoners across California. People walked through downtown passing out flyers of the prisoners demands and then met up with about 35 more people outside of the courthouse. We marched to the jail, chanting.

"Our passion for freedom is stronger than their prisons!"
"Santa Cruz to Pelican Bay, fighting back is the only way!"
"In every city, In every town, bulldoze prisons to the ground!"

We went onto the jail property. We hit the fences with black-flagged-dowels and read a speech while someone inside the women's detention center flashed her lights on and off in rhythm with the drums -- we were heard.
