NYC Anarchist Black Cross Federation

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

NYC Anarchist Black Cross is a collective focused on supporting US-held political prisoners and prisoners of war and opposing state repression against revolutionary social justice movements.
We hold bi-monthly letter-writing dinners at the 123 Space in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. The deal, as always, is that you come bringing only yourself (and your friends and comrades), and we provide you with a delicious vegan meal, information about a political prisoner or group of prisoners as well as all of the letter-writing materials and prisoner-letter-writing info you could ever want to use in one evening. In return, you write a thoughtful letter to a political prisoner or prisoner of war of your choosing or better yet, keep up a long-term correspondence.
