UPDATE: Day 8 of Malik's hunger strike.

When most people miss a meal or two they get "hangry". Malik hasn't eaten in 8 days. And while this hits hard (physically, mentally, emotionally), he is no less determined to raise awareness about his conditions and those of so many others who face the terrors of solitary confinement (and prison more generally).

Even though prisoners in OSP's SMH (Special Management Housing, aka solitary) are isolated and understandably preoccupied with their own struggles, 8 inmates submitted grievance reports about COs assaulting Malik. To see a Black man doing nothing wrong being tased repeatedly, beaten, pinned on the ground... it is enraging. And though they know the deck is stacked against these complaints, they are advocating on his behalf anyway.

Please continue to call and raise awareness. Phone numbers can be found in prior posts.

Fuck OSP; until all of us are free, none of us are free.

Love, rage, and solidarity
