I’ve said it a million times: “Solidarity is our best weapon.” And I’ll likely say it a million more. But it’s true. It’s not just true. It’s beautiful. It’s not just beautiful. It’s what gets us through the hardest of days, … Full post on IG @cindymilstein or: kolektiva.social/@cbmilstein/...

Snitching doesn’t come out of nowhere. This is not to excuse those who cooperated with the police+prosecution in Prairieland; not at all. It’s to add another layer: collective responsibility, & not just when state repression hits. See full IG post @cindymilstein kolektiva.social/@cbmilstein/...

@blackspokecollective has been doing fundraisers for @free.des.revol for about a year, and recently created a design as part of that in honor of Des, with his love of possums in mind: a T-shirt proclaiming, “All we have is each other.” Post: @cindymilstein IG or kolektiva.social/@cbmilstein/...

In April 2025, I asked anarchists to share their compass points—& made a zine. My dear friend @free.des.revol contributed a piece. Three months later, he was arrested. Two weeks ago, he received 30 years behind bars—for a zine. His words are here: kolektiva.social/@cbmilstein/... @cindymilstein IG

“Call for contributions” to the next zine in my curated series, “Side by Side” — sparked by my rage, horror, and grief at Tuesday’s cruel and sadistic sentencing of 30 years for my beloved friend @free.des.revol and 50-100 years for other Prairieland defendants. Cont’d in comments

We, the Free Des Support Committee, remain steadfastly by Des’s side. We’ve been there from the beginning, & we’re not going anywhere, until he & the other Prairieland defendants go free. Zines are not a crime. Solidarity is not a crime. Free Des Revol. Free them all. freedes.net @free.des.revol

We are filled with so, so many painful emotions — and know that we need time to process the enormity and horror of today’s sentences for the defendants and their loved ones, including us, and the ramifications of the Prairieland case for resistance in general. This is a travesty. freedes.net

Des’ words prior to getting 30 years as a Prairieland defendant — for zines: “I believe in human rights & helping others. … I donate money & art to help animals & people. … I am a father, I am a husband, I am a teacher, a poet — I am many things, your Honor, but I’m not a terrorist.” freedes.net
