This work is not for everyone, but we certainly invite those who want to engage in building a Poor People's Campaign. Please RSVP, mark your calendars for March 25th! RSVP to join: forms.gle/E2wU8S3EtqTDqB…
“We haven’t heard anything, to this day, of anything that the state has done. They have not acknowledged us at all, from day one,” Kimberly Burks said. #PoorPeoplesCampaign williamsondailynews.com/news/group-cal…
“B/c they didn’t get in touch w/ us, we feel like there was probably some foul play. That’s what made us decide to get that 2nd autopsy.” - Ms. Kim Burks after not getting answers from the State about her son's, death at the Southern Regional Jail. bit.ly/PPCmarch10
Miranda was thinking, “Thank God, he’s gonna get some help.” Instead, after only 19 days in the Southern Regional Jail, her father was dead. Miranda and all the families deserve answers. Join us as we demand answers from Governor Jim Justice on March 10th! bit.ly/PPCmarch10
Miranda is still seeking answers about how her father, Alvis Shrewsbury, died at the Southern Regional Jail. She deserves answers! Join us on March 10th in Charleston as we stand with Miranda in demanding answers from Gov. Justice! bit.ly/PPCmarch10 #PoorPeoplesCampaign
We won’t let their memories be pushed off the scene. Their lives mattered. These men, we believe should be alive today. This is why we are calling all West Virginians to the State House in Charleston on March 10th! RSVP: bit.ly/PPCmarch10 #PoorPeoplesCampaign
Their answer is always lock ‘em up, and lock ‘em up longer. Our jails are bursting at the seams! We want answers! We want solutions! Join us to fight for answers at the state house on March 10th at 11am. RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/mass-ra…
Join us in Charleston on March 10th! #PoorPeoplesCampaign actionnetwork.org/events/mass-ra…
WATCH NOW: Poor People’s Campaign and Families Call for Federal Investigation of More Than 100 State Jail Deaths in West Virginia x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
The families are joined in this call by @unitethepoor @WestVirginiaPPC @Brepairers @kairoscenternyc and @Forward_Justice in this call. We refuse to just cry, mourn, and bury our dead. NO! We will, in their memory, demand, fight, and push for the truth and for Justice. (7/7)
Equal protection under the law is not a suggestion or opinion. It’s a right. We cannot be silent while poor West Virginians die under the watch of state jails, totaling hundreds over the years. WV officials cannot continue to drag their feet on this urgent matter. (6/7)
Today we were joined by two of 13 families, one Black and one White, grieving from the untimely deaths of their loved ones in state jail. bit.ly/3ZcIQln We are calling on @Sen_JoeManchin and @WVGovernor to step up and investigate this urgent matter. (1/7)
We can't sit back & solely pray for God to fix this. We must engage & make our voices heard. We and the @WestVirigniaPPC are demanding that @Sen_JoeManchin expedite & ensure the full independence of a Federal civil rights investigation Sign our petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/help…
America is the richest country in the world and there’s too much money going to the wrong places. There’s no reason why our jails should be understaffed and neglected. These immoral and unjust deaths are preventable. Neither poverty nor jail time should be a death sentence.
“We’re not going to let the memories of our son and our fiancé, our father and our husband, to just be pushed off the scene as though their lives didn’t matter and as though it is okay for you to go to jail and just die. Or be hurt, harmed, maimed.” – @RevDrBarber
Alvis Shrewsbury was in Southern Regional Jail for just 19 days before his daughter learned that he had passed. The chief medical examiner stated that he died of natural causes, when in fact, his untimely death was due to internal bleeding.
Quantez Burks, was 37 years old when his voice was silenced. After his mother and fiancée spent $5,000 to obtain a second autopsy, they learned that he had passed not of natural causes, but of blunt force trauma to his entire body.
In the last decade, there have been over 100 people who have died under the watch of the West Virginia prison system. In the last year, 13 precious lives have been taken from us.
“We can’t allow our elected leaders to ignore what is unfolding right in front of them.” – @RevDrBarber Last week we convened the mothers and families of those who have died senselessly in West Virginia jails.
