Participate in an Abolitionist New Years Eve tradition December 31st, 2025. Meet at FDC Miami Federal Prison 33 NE Fourth St., Miami, FL 33132 at 10pm. Bring noisemakers! Let those locked inside know that they are not forgotten! In solidarity with all political prisoners and prisoners of war during the holidays!
On the noisiest night of the year in New York City, come help us remind folks locked up that they are not alone. NYC Anarchist Black Cross, in response to an international call for noise demonstrations outside of prisons, is asking folks to join us outside of the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Come, not to appeal to authority, speak truth to power, or any other contrivance, but rather to stand with comrades, at a safe distance, and show direct solidarity to those on the other side of the wall.
The state, writ large, is targeting anarchists all across the United States and abroad. This will be both protest and celebration.
While you gather with your family and loved ones this holiday season, consider that the United States holds political prisoners and people facing political charges all throughout the country on the state and federal level. One of the main things we do to support these political prisoners is run the ABCF Warchest fund.
The Anarchist Black Cross Federation (ABCF) initiated the Warchest program in November 1994 to send monthly donations to Political Prisoners and Prisoners of War who have been receiving insufficient, little, or no financial support during their imprisonment. Its purpose is to collect funds from groups and individual supporters and send that money directly to commissary accounts of vetted Political Prisoners and Prisoners of War (PP/POW) monthly. From inception to end of November 2025, we have raised almost $275,000.

During the holidays, why not write a person who is being held in federal jail on so-called criminal charges and an immigration detainer.

One part of NYC ABC‘s every-other-week Political Prisoner Letter-Writing Dinners is presenting updates and announcements. These typically relate to PPs, POWs, or are especially relevant to folks in NYC. Since February 2011, we’ve been printing and mailing hard copies of the updates and announcements to about a dozen imprisoned comrades.
In April 2013, along with Denver Anarchist Black Cross and Sacramento Prisoner Support, we expanded printing and mailing to include all U.S. held political prisoners and prisoners of war. As of September, 2014, that work has diffused over several support crews, collectives, and individuals.
On this page you will find an archive of what we’ve compiled since mid-March 2011. Please download and mail the current edition to prisoners with whom you correspond and share links with those who might be interested in doing the same.
All prisoners on this list receive these updates every two weeks.
You can download political prisoner flyers at the following sites:

Greetings comrades, Thank you again for showing up for Xinachtli at this critical juncture! We wanted to share some urgent updates and asks.
Our pressure campaign is working. The state of Texas is on the back foot and scrambling, giving us a crucial window to push for his release. Our ability to bring him home hinges on increasing public pressure over the next few days.
We have two asks for those who are able to support:
1. Mobilize your members to sign up for phone zap slots for at least 1-2 days over the next couple of weeks. They are counting on the holiday season to slow us down but we may be on the brink of a major win. Here is the link: bit.ly/xphoneblast
2. Join us for an emergency meeting on Friday at 5:00 PM CST to discuss this major push to bring Xinachtli home, including planning around his potential release. If you can attend let us know and we will send you the meeting link!
Please let us know your capacity to support with these ask. Everything we’ve achieved so far has only been possible because of your support and we are truly grateful!
