June 9, 2007 Day of Solidarity with Jeffrey “Free” Luers

June marks the seventh year that our friend and comrade, Jeffrey "Free" Luers has been imprisoned and held captive by the state. Sentenced to an outrageous 22 years and 8 months for burning three Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) at Romania Chevrolet in Eugene, Jeff has continued to be active in prison and fight back with his words and inspiration. Although Jeff recently won his appeal and is expecting a reduced sentence, this case is not over:

In Jeff’s own words:

“I have spoken with my attorney and there are still many battles ahead.

Hard choices will have to be made. I am by no means close to walking out

of prison, just one step closer. This is a victory, and while my own

personal struggle is making headway others are just beginning.

This June, show your solidarity with me, and all those who have

struggled, past and present, to make this world a better place. Struggle

with us. Hold demonstrations or gatherings at federal buildings or US

embassies and demand change. It doesn’t matter what cause or issue you

fight for - we are all connected. What does matter is that we stand united

and make our voices heard.”

We encourage people to organize events for Jeff and other political prisoners, uniting struggles for human, earth, and animal liberation.
