Support Ashanti Alston!!

Ashanti Alston is a Black Anarchist revolutionary, speaker, writer, organizer, and motivator who, as a result of his membership in both the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense and the Black Liberation Army, served a total of 14 years as a political prisoner and prisoner-of-war. He is currently on the Steering Committee of the National Jericho Movement to free U.S. political prisoners.

Ashanti is in the process of moving into his own apartment and needs some temporary help. So some of us who organize with Ashanti are fundraising to renovate the apartment he’s going to move into to elder-friendly, long-term housing. Our elders have sacrificed so much. It is our duty, those of us inspired by and trying to build revolutionary movements today, to make sure our elders are taken care of! We also simply love this incredibly sweet and strong person and want him to have what he needs. We’re hoping to raise $20,000 for the renovations. If you can’t afford to donate, please pass the message on to your friends and comrades (or share on social media). No amount is too small! Thank you for helping us.

Funds will go to Building Circle, a local construction cooperative that will be renovating the apartment.
