How to Write to Political Prisoners 101

Step 1: Donate to Kojo here (sugg. donation $40).

Step 2: Register for “How to Write to Political Prisoners 101” here.

In this workshop, writer and former political prisoner Eric King will guide us through the 101's of how to write to political prisoners, and why supporting and communicating with prisoners is such an important and overlooked aspect of our liberation movements.

Maybe you've seen calls for supporting political prisoners or letter-writing sessions, but have felt unsure how to get started? This workshop is for you! No prior knowledge or experience needed!

All proceeds from Eric’s workshop will go to Kojo Sababu, a political prisoner who needs ongoing support for commissary and medical funds.

Eric King is an anarchist and anti-fascist writer and organizer who spent ten years in federal prison for acting in solidarity with the Ferguson uprising. He was released from the Federal Supermax prison in December 2023. He is the co-editor of Rattling the Cages: Oral Histories of North American Political Prisoners (AK Press, 2023) and his memoir, A Clean Hell: Anarchy and Abolition in America’s Most Notorious Dungeon (AK Press, 2026) is forthcoming.
