go A LETTER Ststement We the twenty seven slave- convicts, black, brown and white alike, of San Quintin Adjustment Center stand victi-mized through a plot of conspiracy to be murder just like our comrade George L. Jackson, was murder August 21,1971. The scene was made to 110k 55 an sca-pa attemt, but it was a conspiracy to murder the Soledad Brothers and Ruchel Magee in particular» and the rest of the freedom fighter in general. Since the State fail to murder the remaining ( two) Soledad brothers and Magee, the're attemting to project them as leaders, in order to bias the mind of the people. The State know the Soledad brothers have world wide su-pport and their present case will not stand up in court, due to the power of the people to meat their own justice when they see victims are unjustly ac-cused. The state know that Magee has been held in slavery illigally for se-ven years for known fraud evidence. This whole mass murder conspiracy was the state's desperate but feeble at-temt to eliminate prominent political prisoners and save court cost. Since August 21, 1971. Warden Parks has diseminated to the people false propaganda and lies. This is why we are held in a state of incommunicado to amputate us from the people. We vere deprive of penciland paper for a lenghty piriod of time. The first do-cument that was drawn was done so with paper and pencil that was smuggled to us .We are still to a great degree, cut off from the people; the sudden restrictions impose upon our viaits;all books, magazines and newspapers have been stopped, We aro not allowed to have earphones to hear the news. Most of us are in constant hunger due to the lock of nutrition that is necessa. ry to maintain good health. These ars just a few of the gestapo-like tactics employed by this prison pig administra-tion in an effort to silence us and prevent their exposure. August 21,l97l,twenty-seven of us ex-pirience fascism in its rawest form. We were Subjected to all kinds of phy-sical brutality i.e. beaten with clubs, kicked, torture with lighted cigarret-tes cursed at, spit on dragged, stuck-ed with pins,etc, etc.A1l this was go-ing while we were chaned like animals, lying naked upon the grass. The hand cuffs, and leg- chains were put on so tight that our blood stopped circula-ting and sour linbs were numb, This ja the same position ( chained down) Al Mancino was in when a fascist pig(ap-poximately three feet away) shot him. One pig said he was shot becau-se he moved and another one ( pig) stated he was chot because he asso-ciated with dirty niggera and grea-sers. Mancino was wrapped up with a rag without being un-shackled and was thrown in s cart and was carried sway. We were msde to lie in this inhuman and antagonizing position eppoximately six hours. Then we were dragged in the building to have our heads sud eyes brows shaven. From there we were kic-ked and beatien and made to crswl on our knees to our cells.Our lives are threatened daily auch as: we will be poisoned, we will he gassed, we will never leave the Adjustment Center a-live, there will be no court for us, etc. etc. The çhains and hand-cuffs are always put on tight when we go on our visits and we're always beaten and spit on. This type of treatment goes on every dey and they're trying to re-duce us to the lowest terms. We rea-liza that we're at their mercy, but as proud slaves, there is so much we will stand ir, order to maintain our dignity as men. In this type of at-mosphere there will be more conflict. As you know we are up against the greatest odds and will come out on the short end. This is why we must be taken out of the custody of the state and trans-ferred to s federal institujon. Con-gressmen, senators, lawyers etc. have been in here as investigators. They have seen how we have been brutalized, humiliated and starved. We are won-dering do they realize that our lives are in danger constsotly and that every time investigators leave the FROM SsQ, 27 prizon grounds we are brutalized and put back on a restricted food diet. We feel that our true words are not getting to the people without being diluted and distorted, therefore this paper is necessary. Th.re are Blaek, kown and I4site con-rada here that don't belong to any par-ticular political organization. All they ask for, is the people's support in our day to day struggle. We realize that people have the habit of not identifying with people that don't adhere to a cer-tain ideology or concept. However, there are men among us from all walks of life and some of us don't read Marx, Lenin» Engels, Mao, etc. As a matter of fact some of us can't read periodi What we are saying is that, we need help from anybody, be they punks, pimps, prosti-tute, preacher or p.h.d's. It is time for the people to come together in spite of our political beliefs. Petty politics is just snother form of division that has kept us from working together. Also, we have formed the habit of co-unter- attacks instead of attacks. Mean-ing that we wait until one or more of our comrades have been murdered before someone decides to re-act out of emo-tional impulse, which results in the captures or death of more comrades. We cannot continue to swap lives with the pigs, that is not winning. Comrade Geo-rge said that 'we must learn how to fight Anybody can die; dying ia easy, liv- -ing and being respected as men and equal among all men. We do not mourn or weep for our belov-d comrade. He the dragon- has instilled in our hearts and minds the courage and knowledge to carry on his ideals, in his dynamic spirit. He has made the ultimate sacrafice and his Black blood is the nourishment that gives us (the baby dra-gons) the strength to struggle against the overwhelming odds of oppression. We shall avenge him, for we are the ones who knsw. and loved him most. We shared his joy and sorrow, his pain and pleas-ure, We are a part of him and he a part of us. Kenneth E.
