Follow example of unity in Oregon

I was reading through the Under Lock and Key section of MIM Notes and what caught my attention the most was the unity and organization amongst the fellow captives in EOCI's DSU on June 19, 2005 when they rioted against our real enemies, the pigs. And again, recently the brothers united and went on a hunger strike to take a stand against the oppressor. This is pleasing to hear and should be a message to us captives in these California warehouses (prisons) where they are continuously taking and taking. I am glad to hear there are still brothers out there who are like myself, who are not going to be passive to these pig's corruption.

Brothers in California State Prisons need to become conscious and realize the more you lay down to this corrupted system and their contradictive rules and regulations, the more they are going to take our visits, take our canteen products, take our personal clothing, take our radios. Take our minds, take our dignity, take our lives.

We are not enemies of each others. These pigs ca't stop us if we are united as one and take a stand against this oppression and corruption. As long as we let these pigs bring these unnecessary divisions among us (Blacks, whites Hispanics, Northerners, Southerners, Bloods, Crips, Muslims, Christians) we will continue to lose our dignity and stay captives in these industrialized cesspools (prisons) for modern day slavery.
