Convicts, Prisoners, Incarcerees, Slaves, Are still people. We are human beings. The fact that i need to say that says more about you, O upstanding citizen, than it does about me. 

My recently freed sister is making this site for me, an uncensored place we can talk with you. "We"-humans in cages. "You"-free humans. A place we be told our words are too raw, too harsh, too real. 

Nothing about prison, or any other iteration of slavery, is natural. Unnaturallife.org doesnt  give you a glimpse of women living for a while in prison. Unnaturallife.org gives you insight into women who will die in prison. Forgotten, Neglected, abandoned, slandered, discarded, unworthy. Yet Still the prisons most valuable slaves, the most lucrative commodity 

We seek to show you the Lifer's sentence of Death thru Life. And to prove that humans, any humans, should not be enslaved. Should not live in a cage. For Life. Or for a year & a day.

 

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

You can collect your change and put it on a political prisoner's books once a month so they can make phone calls, make copies, help other prisoners, have postage and be ready to sue when retaliated against.

You can be careful not to support prisoners who pretend to be supportive of others but are not. Read the interviews here, harms are named in the dialogue. Avoid pigs-pets, 50-50, cops in orange.

You can support honorable Professors who come into prisons year after year to freely share their kindness, knowledge and wisdom.

You can be very careful not to support "Prison Reform" and support only "Prison Abolition". Enough is enough. Abolition is an inevitability.

You can avoid supporting Inkarcerated and other places who use some of their profit to support prisons and prison staff. Check these places and where all their money actually goes. If you want to support a convict or their kids, write a convict and do that. If you want convict art, write a political prisoner in whatever prison you choose and they will know of artists far better on the yard than those working to support the prison.

You can go to my Resource section and write the free book places and have books sent in to convicts. Tell your friends inside you sent them because prison staff have started stealing invoices so we don't know who to thank for our books.

You can purchase books from Haymarket for yourself and your friends about what is going on in the world.

You can be willing to call Central Office when your friends inside are harmed by cops. You can be willing to call the ACLU if Central doesn't do anything.

You can refuse to abandon your friends and family inside because we might become inconvenient. If you have abandoned your people, reach out again. You're already forgiven. Life is hard inside.

You can be willing to network for your friends inside. Make one phone call a month for them, post an email of messages somewhere once a month for them. Help political prisoners stay connected to the world. It might literally save their life.

You can send subscriptions of Prison Legal News to your political prisoner friends. PLN has done amazing work fighting for convict's First Amendment rights and teaching us how to do the same. Every cent you spend on a subscription funds legal action against prisons. PLN is the real deal.

You can refuse to support right-wing, evangelical, christianizing, fundamentalist, genocide/ israeli terrorist supporting groups like Prison Fellowship who are actively colonizing prisons.

You can make "Fuck The Police" your philosophy, your lifestyle, your religious war against oppression, your mantra. You can be a huge part of this war and help heal the world of sickness without even leaving your house.
