Arise! Books, 2441 Lyndale Avenue South

In an increasingly repressive society, prisoner support is an essential aspect of an effective culture of resistance. It's an easy thing for people on the outside to send letters or books, and can provide valuable material and emotional aid. The state aims to isolate "criminal" individuals, and one way we can combat that is by communicating with is captives. Arise! Bookstore is one of many organizations in the Twin Cities geared at contributing to prisoner support.
