The U.S. has 5 percent of the world’s population but 20 percent of the world’s prisoners. The “land of the free” is the most highly incarcerated country on the planet. It also has the largest number of political prisoners and is one of the worst offenders of the human rights of prisoners, especially political prisoners.
The struggle to free all political prisoners is just as urgent now as it ever was. Right here in Virginia, we have numerous political prisoners. to learn more about this, please join us for.a public screening of the documentary, “Shaka Shakur: Human Rights Held Hostage,”” a documentary about the struggle of New Afrikan Political Prisoner, organizer, theorist, and author Shaka Shakur.
