The Lucasville Uprising was a rebellion against oppressive and racist policies at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility (SOCF) in Lucasville, OH. Nine inmates and one guard died during the uprising in April of 1993. Today, many people are serving time or condemned to death by the state of Ohio in relation to the uprising. We demand amnesty for all of these inmates. The conditions at SOCF were (and still are) intolerable and unconscionable.

Solidarity Statement from David Gilbert
“Warm greetings and strong solidarity go out to the Lucasville brothers now facing the death penalty and broader repression as a result of standing up for prisoners' rights. I can only imagine how difficult and challenging your situation is. Still, as we know from the centuries of struggles to abolish slavery, early principled stands, even when the odds are completely against us, help create a legacy that makes later advances possible. Everyone who cares about human rights should support you. I salute your courage and principles and wish you the very best in the struggles ahead.”
(David Gilbert, anti-imperialist PP)
