PIES: Social Justice: Ramadan Letter Writing NEIPJC 119 Winnebago Street

Event Details

Some folks are cake people, but here at the PJC we like pie. Specifically: P.I.E.S. Peace, Immigration, Environment, and Social Justice. These are the topics that we cover on a revolving schedule on Thursday mornings at 9:00 a.m.

Do you enjoy receiving a personal letter, written by hand? If you do, imagine what such a letter might mean to a person in prison. Now you know the reason why the Peace & Justice Center sponsors “Ramadan Letter Writing Project.”
Ramadan, a holy time for Muslims, involves prayer and fasting from sun-up to sundown, no food or water. This time of year, with longer days, the fast is more difficult. A greeting from the outside world could be a candle of hope.
The National Coalition to Protect Civil Freedoms (NCPCF) advocates for Muslim prisoners preemptively incarcerated. It also suggests their affected families. (Preemptive meaning they did not actually do harm to anyone.) The Patriot Act enables prosecutors to withhold alleged evidence from defenders so defense cannot scrutinize and question its validity.  As a result, many accused Muslims are given long sentences — 30 years to life — and are subjected to extended solitary (months to years.)
If you wish to bring words of kindness and hope to these prisoners, please join us these two Thursdays (June 22 & 29) at 9:00 am. Writing materials will be provided, as well as names, addresses, and guidelines.

Join us for information, coffee, and conversation!
