Lisa was sentenced to death by a jury that was never informed of the full extent and impact of the sexual violence and physical abuse she endured. As a result of her trauma, she is now so mentally ill that she must receive multiple medications to prevent full-blown psychosis.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We&nbsp; ask Trump&nbsp; to grant a stay of execution.

She was born with permanent brain damage caused by her mother\u2019s drinking during pregnancy. A child of extreme poverty, she was repeatedly raped by her stepfather. She was routinely beaten and terrorized by her mother. Lisa\u2019s mother trafficked her to men who were allowed to rape Lisa in exchange for utilities and other services. Although this was suspected or known by teachers, police, and the courts, nobody intervened to protect Lisa.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This horror continued when she married her stepbrother at the urging of her mother at the age of 18. He continued the cycle of abuse, raping and beating her. Not surprisingly, this lifetime of torture exacerbated Lisa\u2019s genetic predisposition to mental illness, and caused her to develop a dissociative disorder in addition to complex post-traumatic stress disorder. Her severe trauma and mental illness led directly to the crime for which she was convicted \u2013 the murder of a pregnant woman and the kidnapping of her child.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below info is from Toby &amp; Susan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Letters can be sent to Lisa:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please write on a plane piece of paper. \u00a0<strong>NO\u00a0CARDS, POSTCARDS, DRAWINGS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL ALLOWED.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Only words allowed! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple message can do wonders! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lisa loves Christmas\u2026.so your words may want to reflect on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggestion: &nbsp;Choose a special stamp\u2026.to add color and vibrancy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mail to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lisa Montgomery, &nbsp;#11072 &#8211; 031<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Federal Medical Center &#8211; Carswell<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ft.

(actionnetwork.org)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More people voted in this election than in any other election in U.S. history, but 74 million of them voted for a fascist incumbent whose regime has advanced a vicious program of white supremacy, misogyny and theocratic patriarchy, and \u201cAmerica First\u201d xenophobia. 74 million people endorsed locking children in cages, throwing immigrants in concentration camps, and backing the most vicious white supremacy, including vigilante racist and anti-Semitic murderers. A political form of Christian fundamentalism makes up the most organized solid base of this fascist movement. The 74 million include millions deeply mired in a world of lies, crazy lunatic conspiracy theories and a vicious anti-science mindset that has already killed a quarter of a million people from COVID, with the pandemic now out of control.<br><br><strong>Some Questions<\/strong><br>What accounts for this?

Please tell us about your access needs on the registration form so we can best support your participation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join us for a virtual community event where we will learn from a panel of grassroots experts on creating community solutions to interpersonal harm. We\u2019ll also get skilled-up through a training on accountability tools that we can use in each of our own communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are all intimately familiar with harm and violence; each one of us has committed harm and has been harmed in one way or another. And when harm happens or conflicts escalate, it\u2019s often because our needs aren\u2019t being met \u2014 and that\u2019s when many people have turned to the prison industrial complex (PIC) for answers. But the PIC leaves us unsupported and fails to address any deeper social and economic problems behind why harm happens. In fact, the PIC\u2019s interventions create more harm instead of reducing it. So we need to build solutions to violence and harm outside the PIC if we want to truly end harm. How can we do that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How can we respond to harm and violence in ways that minimize and prevent further harm? How can we take care of each other in ways that fully meet our needs? And how can we build toward a world where our communities are able to take care of and sustain themselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are big questions, but we can learn how to address them from the organizations and communities who are answering them today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the seventh event of No New SF Jail Coalition\u2019s Abolition in Action Series, a monthly series of community events and workshops on different topics related to building a jail-free, police-free, self-determined, equitable, and sustainable San Francisco.

Please contact organizers for details on location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you cannot join us in Oakland @11AM at Barbara Lee&#8217;s Offc or San Fancisco @3pm for this event, or San Jose 12\/11\/20 between Noon-6PM @Zoe Lofgren&#8217;s Offc, please consider joining us in solidarity at your local Representative\u2019s office and call or write your Representative urging them to support H.Res. 1175.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On November 23, 2020 Stella Moris, Julian\u2019s fianc\u00e9, tweeted that over 70% of prisoners in Julian\u2019s Belmarsh Prison wing were infected with COVID-19. His life is in imminent danger and depends on us acting urgently!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In October, Tulsi Gabbard and Thomas Massie introduced House Resolution 1175, a bill calling for the United States to ensure the release of Julian Assange. She introduced a similar bill, House Resolution 1162, with Matt Gaetz aimed at dropping criminal charges against Edward Snowden. With Tulsi Gabbard leaving Congress it is imperative to ensure that H.Res 1175 and H.Res. 1162 do not die with the start of the 117th Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please bring signs\/banners\/fliers if you have them, but mainly just show up. Safe distancing &amp; masks please.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: Bay Area Action to Free Assange<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>12.

Within seven months, a US-orchestrated coup ousted Aristide and installed a military dictatorship that murdered thousands; re-elected in 2000, Aristide was removed by US marines in 2004 as Haiti celebrated the bicentenary of its revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: Haiti Action Committee<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info \/ Actions:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/haitisolidarity.net\/stand-with-haiti-dec-10-16\/\">Stand With Haiti, Dec. 10-16th (haitisolidarity.net)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More information&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/haitisolidarity.net\/stand-with-haiti-dec-10-16\/\"><strong>Haiti Action Committee<\/strong><\/a><br>Global Women\u2019s Strike (GWS)&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:gws@globalwomenstrike.net\">gws@globalwomenstrike.net<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Women of Color\/GWS&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:womenofcolour@globalwomenstrike.net\">womenofcolour@globalwomenstrike.net<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Am still NOT back posting.
