Critical Resistance NYC Holiday Card Writing Party

Sunday December 8, 1 PM to 4 PM

Every year in the wintertime, Critical Resistance New York City sends a note of solidarity, hope, and encouragement to 1,500+ of our comrades that are currently locked up in jails, detention centers, and prisons on the east coast. This year, we invite you to join us at Interference Archive to send cards across the walls to our people!

It is our hope that together we can get notes to all of our contacts and continue to strengthen our relationships as one piece of reducing the isolation of imprisonment. All are welcome and no prior letter writing experience is needed. We will have snacks and other materials to share in addition to card writing supplies – and we hope to see you there!
