Dear Friend,
Our NEW 'No More Shackles' report is officially live! Get it here.
The product of years of research centering the lived experiences of those directly impacted by electronic monitoring, No More Shackles: Ten Arguments Against Pretrial Electronic Monitoring details the impacts of EM and argues against accepting these ankle shackles as part of our efforts to decarcerate. Read and share the report today!
To further celebrate the release of this new report, part of our #NoDigitalPrisons campaign, we're hosting a report launch event in partnership with the Chicago Community Bail Fund TONIGHT at 6:30pm CST. Not able to join us in in Chicago? Watch the livestream, staring at 7 pm CST!
Finally, follow @mediajustice all week on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook as we highlight all 10 arguments against electronic monitoring outlined in the report. And use #NoMoreShackles to add your own thoughts.
We need genuine alternatives, an end to pretrial detention, and investment in resources embedded in our communities that do not extend e-carceration or the reach of high-tech surveillance into our lives. We hope this report is a useful resource to aid in these ongoing struggles for freedom.
In solidarity,
James & Myaisha, and the rest of Team #MediaJustice
