Michael Kimble’s Statement And Calls to Action For February 8th Prisoner Work Strike
On February 8th 2026 prisoners in the state of Alabama are doing it again!
The Free Alabama Movement (FAM) made the call for prisoners to shut this shit down (work strike) and prisoners throughout the state is answering this call to action on February 8th by refusing to participate in their own exploitation and oppression. There will be no work (slave labor).
The demands from prisoners at the prison i’m being held captive in (Ventress Correctional Facility) are:
TOTAL ABOLITION OF PRISONS, ELIMINATION OF LWOP SENTENCES (LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE) AND THE DEATH PENALTY
We refuse to continue playing a part in our own slavery, exploitation and oppression by withholding our labor power.
JOIN US BY BEING CREATIVE AND FIGHTING TO ABOLISH PRISONS.
Some suggestions for thse out in minimum kustody (so-called free world):
- BANNER DROPS
- AGITATION AND EDUCATION
- HOLD A SCREENING OF THE DOCUMENTARY “THE ALABAMA SOLUTION”
- GRAFFITI
- WRITE A PRISONER
- DIRECT ACTION
The state of Alabama department of corrections has already begin to attempt to derail the work strike by weaponizing food and limiting the amount of food prisoners can purchase from the commissary, and bird feeding us.
This morning we were all served a small portion of soupy oatmeal, one slice of bread and a spoonful of jelly, and a spoonful of gravy. For lunch we were served one fish patty, one slide of bread, and a spoonful of English peas.
We also suggest that you call and demand that we are given full, nutritious meals.
SHUT THIS SHIT DOWN!
