Money: always need cash
Meeting Space: we need a free, regular meeting space to help us get this stuff done as a group
Books: we need political lit(Black Panthers, Malcolm, Mao, Marx, Lenin and books on national liberation struggles are most frequent requests), dictionaries and law books for our Books for Prisoners program
Legal Work: Our comrades behind bars are constantly battling with the prison authorities to get our literature, letters and books. We need help bringing these censorship cases and other legal battles to the courts to protect our ability to have free speech.
