DESCRIPTION:On July 14th, The Direct Action Monterey Network is celebrating Bastille 
 Day and launching the Monterey chapter of the Anarchist Black 
 Cross!\n\nBastille Day Party: July 14th, 8pm, at Del Monte Beach\nABC 
 Letter Writing: July 15th, 8pm, at Old Capitol Books\n\nAbout the 
 ABC:\n\nSince the beginning of the Twentieth Century, the Anarchist Black 
 Cross (ABC), has been on the frontline in supporting those imprisoned for 
 struggling for freedom and liberty. Until recently, the history of the ABC 
 movement has been lost to the pages of time. The present generation of ABC 
 collectives were left rootless with little known information about this 
 organization. Now, specific questions regarding our origin can now be put 
 to rest. We have now begun to rediscover our roots.\n\nHow does the ABC 
 support Political Prisoners?\n\nMaking sure PP/POWs are a part of their own 
 support is crucial and one of the greatest strengths of the Federation. We 
 directly communicate with as many PP/POWs as we can. A large part of this 
 communication is working together with them to find out what they need and 
 how then we can practically provide this support. The Federation’s 
 Prisoners’ Committee (PC), made up of 5 PP/POWs who have shown interest 
 in our work and helping it grow, serves on the ABCF’s Federation Council. 
 Members of the Prisoners’ Committee rotate yearly.\n\nThe ABCF also works 
 to build alliances with the communities and the movements the prisoners 
 participated in prior to their incarceration. Through these alliances, we 
 work toward increasing the awareness about various liberation movements and 
 the political prisoners associated with the movements. It is through these 
 coalitions that we continue to ensure that imprisoned comrades are not 
 forgotten by their movements or our own.\n\nHow will Monterey be 
 involved?\n\nThe Direct Action Monterey Network will is organizing a 
 monthly letter writing session for political prisoners, with an emphasis on 
 political prisoners in California's jails and prisons. These letter writing 
 groups will be held on the third Tuesday of each month at 8pm at Old 
 Capitol Books, downtown Monterey\n\n\n
