In this week’s episode of Women on the Line, we’re joined by Anne-lise Ah-fat, who has been involved in coordinating and editing a recently-released collection of poems by community members on the inside called ‘None Of Us Are Free Until All Of Us Are Free’. This is the second edition of poems from the inside published by Incendium Radical Library and Press, and has been in the making for over a year. The collection features creative writing from a range of contributors including Stacey Stokes, who kindly gave us permission to include her thoughts on writing as part of this episode and asked that Anne-lise read them out.
Sales for ‘None Of Us Are Free Until All Of Us Are Free’ have been going towards supporting the Inside Out newsletter, a quarterly newsletter by and for LGBTIQ+ folks, sistergirls and brotherboys incarcerated in prisons or detention centres. You can help cover the costs of producing Inside Out and find out more by heading to Inside Out Solidarity Network on Facebook or visiting their website.
Some other excellent initiatives providing support and resources to incarcerated community members:
