Sometimes visibility isn\u2019t enough. During these intense times, solidarity has never been more important. For this Trans Day of Visibility, Kes Otter Lieffe and aequa are organising a solidarity event to write to trans folk in prisons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While many people on the outside are beginning to understand what isolation means, incarcerated trans people know it all too well and receiving letters and cards can be a lifeline to a caring community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

>>The session will be online and in English.<<<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll hear some short presentations from prisoner solidarity organisations, then we can write our letters and cards separately \u2013 but also together, gathered in a cozy, online space \u2013 and send them off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll provide you with addresses to post them to in the UK and possibly the US and other places*. We\u2019ll also give some considerations for writing\/posting safely during the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t worry if you\u2019ve never written to someone in prison before, we\u2019ll give you some tips and starters!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
