Political Prisoner flyers to download/share

Via NYCABC

For many of the prisoners NYC ABC supports, we have tri-fold pamphlets. Some are our own design, others taken from the Anarchist Black Cross Federation. Feel free to download and distribute as you see fit– there’s even space on the back to add your local group’s contact information.

NOTE: When two-sided/duplex printing, select “print on short edge.” This way you avoid one side being printed upside down. Download these flyers here or at

About Certain Days: 

The Certain Days: Freedom for Political Prisoners Calendar is a joint fundraising and educational project between outside organizers across North America and political prisoner Xinachtli (s/n Alvaro Luna Hernandez) in Texas. We were happy to welcome founding members Herman Bell and Robert Seth Hayes (Rest in Power) home from prison in 2018, and founding member David Gilbert home from prison in 2021. We work from an anti-imperialist, anti-racist, anti-capitalist, feminist, queer- and trans-liberationist position. Learn more and support them at certaindays.org.

 The “Virgin Island 3” are a group of activists accused of murdering eight people in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The murders took place during a turbulent period of rebellion on the Islands. During the 1970’s, as with much of the world, a movement to resist colonial rule began to grow in the U.S. occupied Virgin Islands. From 1971 to 1973, there was a small scale Mau Mau rebellion taking place on the islands. This activity was down-played by the media, for fear it would damage the tourist industry, which the island’s survival depends on. More information: vi3.org

End of year ABCF Warchest report

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 December 2025, we have raised almost $275,000 [view our latest Warchest Report accounting for funds raised].

To donate to the ABCF Warchest:
1- Check or money order: made out to Tim Fasnacht and sent to P.O. Box 8682, Lancaster, PA 17604.

New Illustrated Guide to Political Prisoners

We’ve finished the latest version of the NYC ABC “Illustrated Guide to Political Prisoners and Prisoners of War” and it’s available for viewing (and download).

This update includes updated mini-bios, photos, and address changes for several prisoners. Sadly, this edition includes the removal of Imam Jamil Al-Amin. Rest easy, Imam Jamil.
