Rally for Sam Harrell

On Saturday, April 23, from 2-4, The Freedom Tour for Prisoner Justice with Taina Asili and Reyes will be performing at rally in Beacon calling for justice for Sam Harrell.

April 21 will mark one year since Sam Harrell was killed at the Fishkill prison in Beacon, NY. As many as 20 corrections officers handcuffed him, beat him, shouted racial slurs at him, and threw him down a flight of stairs. A year later those COs are still on the job and nothing has been done to prevent something like this from happening again.To mark the anniversary of Sam’s death, 8 members of Sam’s family plus friends and supporters are launching a 5 day fast/hunger strike, as well as two rallies to be held in Beacon and NYC.
