Luis' mum was quite mad about her son
She'd gone three days with no food or fun
Hospitalised now
She stands firm somehow
In protest of the treatment he'd come

"As the struggle continues inside occupation prisons for justice and liberation, there are currently 14 Palestinian prisoners engaged in an open hunger strike to demand freedom from administrative detention, imprisonment without charge or trial.

"There are currently approximately 1,132 Palestinians jailed without charge or trial under administrative detention, out of nearly 5,000 Palestinian political prisoners, the highest number in 20 years."

, : Graffiti Action Against Italian Insurance Company Generali in Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoner

Excerpt from the communique: "Generali is an Italian company and a cornerstone of Europe. It was day 180 of Alfredo's , which he had started on 12/20/20 to fight 41bis. Although Alfredo stopped his hunger strike, we decided to attack because he's still in jail and 41bis still exists. The 41bis is a prison regime to which 728 other prisoners are subjected. In the 41bis regime, any physical contact is forbidden, the prisoners are monitored 24/7 by camera and microphone, you are not allowed to choose books and magazines to read yourself and much more. Alfredo has used his body as a last resort, fighting not only for himself but against the entire 41bis regime."

Today in Labor History May 5, 1981: Bobby Sands (1954-1981) died, ending his 66-day hunger strike. Sands was an Irish political prisoner and member of Parliament who had been locked up in the notoriously brutal Maze Prison near Belfast. The strike was an attempt to get the British government to grant political prisoner status to Nationalist inmates, rather than treating them as common criminals.
