If you can’t make it, you can still help out by downloading this flyer and posting it around town.

The RNC 8 are eight activists facing felony conspiracy charges as a result of organizing they did around protests against the Republican National Convention in Saint Paul last year.  These people face prison time for exercising their first amendment rights and are now involved in a legal process that is moving at a shamefully slow pace.  These eight lives (along with the lives of their many supporters) have been focused on legal defense and building community support for more than a year.  To learn more or to donate to RNC 8 Defense, visit http://www.RNC8.org.

Isis Rising (Incarcerated Women’s Doula Network), implemented by Everyday Miracles, is a program of pregnancy, birth and parenting support for incarcerated women currently serving time at the Shakopee Women’s Prison. To learn more or to donate to Isis Rising, visit http://www.everyday-miracles.org/isis.shtml.
