Solitary Confinement Day of Action

media release: Every month, on the 23rd, WISDOM leaders gather to remember the people in our prisons. We gather on the 23rd, remembering that those in solitary confinement are trapped in a small cell alone for 23 hours every day (and spend the other hour alone in a different place). Our actions on the 23rd are a way of saying that although these fellow human beings are out of sight, they are not out of mind. There will be three events THIS SATURDAY (November 23):

• At 11 am in front of the Milwaukee Secure Detention Facility ( 1015 N. 10th St, Milwaukee)
• At 12:00 noon on the Capitol Steps in Madison (State Street side of the building)
• At 12:00 noon on the southeast corner of the Green Bay Correctional Institution (on Webster Street)

We encourage as many people to attend these relatively brief events as are able. People in prison are aware of our presence and are grateful to be remembered.
