My friend Laurie Jo Reynolds has been working tirelessly on a campaign to bring accountability to the treatment of prisoners at the TAMMS Penitentiary in Illinois. This supermax prison in Southern Illinois treats prisoners terribly engaging in behavior that only the cruelest most delusional people would not refer to as torture.
According to the website, Tamms Year Ten is a coalition of prisoners, ex-prisoners, families, artists and other concerned citizens who have come together to protest the misguided and inhumane policies at Tamms C-MAX, and to call for an end to psychological torture. We have initiated a program of cultural, educational and political events to publicize Tamms after ten years of operation.
Please go to the Tamms Year Ten website and get involved in this urgent campaign. They do not have high-paid lobbyists to win their fight. They depend on the grassroots. That is YOU!
