@northern.oak.designs has the COVID-19 Prison Holistic Self Care and Protection piece finished and available for free for all to print and share with any and all incarcerated folx! The link is in my bio. Please read the words of a fellow creator/comrade who gives more info on this resource, the project, and how we all came together. (And then share! P.S. Appreciate the shout out @mama_maiz...thanks for spreading the word!) ⬇️ Reposted from @ladyursus: I am feeling huge amounts of Gratitude for having a Nest to isolate myself in right now- I haven't always had that. As a formerly incarcerated individual hearing folx use the term "lockdown" and "House Arrest" to describe their experience right now- it's been on my mind what it was like being a prisoner and having your freedom really taken from you. With a heavy heart I have been thinking much about how extra stressful and hard it would feel to be homeless or a prisoner right now during this Pandemic. . My friend @babydanicarose who is a Radical Criminal rights Activist and Attorney approached me about helping put a short Holistic Self Care & Protection piece together for Prisoners during the COVID-19/ pandemic. A small group of us compiled an accessible self-help resource for folx to print out and send in. The hope is to empower prisoners to feel confident in doing what they can to support and protect themselves. The info we compiled is based on what we know people in California prisons may have access to, but we hope it will be helpful in other states as well. I have it linked in my profile as a free resource to share and spread wherever you like. Please send to anyone who might want to use or print this to send inside. . Big Love and Solidarity to you all! . Thank you @solidarity.Apothecary for letting us dip into and use some of the framework from The Prisoners Herbal & Thank you to the other folx involved in making this happen @nightbloomingzoe @northern.oak.designs @ekhiser . Some bad ass small businesses I am sporting in this photo. @mama_maiz Decolonize your medicine shirt. @kestrelcharlie kestral hat @moonfat cosmetics - #regrann _ #massincarceration #prisonindustrialcompl
