Jasmine Fyre will be sharing the Center's methodology, including the ancestral roots of this work, what we're building in Oakland, and why it changes outcomes.
Tumani Drew will moderate a discussion with a very special guest on how we're generating people power and reshaping the political landscape.

Please join us in screaming WELCOME HOME to Sister Warrior Gayle Jenkins, affectionately known as ā€˜Popsā€™.

Pops spent 42 long years in prison under Californiaā€™s 3-strike law. Pops was released under Assembly Bill 600 and was told by a Judge, she should have been released 18 years ago. Once resentenced, she was released 3 days later with no opportunity to get housing and services secured. Sister Warriors lead, Trancita Ponce, and community stepped up and supported getting her housing and the support and care she deserves.

As we welcome Pops home, we also know her journey of healing and integrating into the outside world will be a long one. It is completely unacceptable for our people to lose years of their lives behind bars due to system bureaucracy and unjust, harsh sentencing. Sister Warriors Freedom Coalition organizes every day to support our Sisters and get our folks home. Our vision of freedom rests on our belief that we deserve joy, care, love, and community ā€” not punishment, criminalization, and cages.

If you want to support our Sisters coming home and those still behind prison walls, TAP IN with us! You can join our upcoming Statewide virtual meeting, or find your closest regional chapter meeting and find out how. If you canā€™t make it this month, we hold our chapter meetings monthly, so please join us.
Come as YOU ARE. We are here to support one another! There is a role for each of us in this moment, and we are stronger when we organize together.

This month, Sister Warriors chapters across the state came together to build community, deepen political education, and build power. Our chapters are at the heart of our work.
In Fresno, members gathered for brunch and sent political education mailers to Sister Warriors inside CCWF and CIW. The LA chapter analyzed the prison industrial complex and explored the economic forces that sustain it. In Oakland, members continued strengthening community and discussed the importance of the upcoming midterm elections.
Shoutout to our chapter organizers for creating and holding down these powerful spaces!

Sister Warriors would like to thank LA Care for affording us with opportunities that helped build connections, network, and invest in our members leadership.

Through this partnership we have been able to advance the leadership development and power-building work at the core of our mission, building the political power of currently and formerly incarcerated women, girls, and trans people so they can shape the systems that once controlled them.
