Wheelock Mountain Farm has been hosting 2nd Tuesday of the Month Potlucks for the last four years. Each June, our potluck has commemorated June 11th--The International Day of Solidarity with Marius Mason, Eric McDavid, & Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners. This year, the second Tuesday of June is June 9th, and on that night we will again be honoring and invoking those suffering from state repression for their engagement in eco-liberation struggles. The international June 11th organizing crew is calling this a year of transition and a year for celebration--celebration for Eric McDavid's getting out of prison (10 years early because the FBI was caught with holding evidence from the defense), and for Marius Mason's coming out of an imposed gender role. This year Marius came out publicly as a man and began seeking resources for his physical transition.
This year also saw state repression, and resistance to it, grow with uprisings against police in Ferguson, New York, and Baltimore (to name the most obvious). It is in the spirit of intersectional liberation struggles that we will come together, share stories, information, and strategies, and decide how we can best support our comrades on the inside and on the outside. It'd be great to see lots of folks out, but if you can't make it please consider making a donation and writing a letter to Marius or Eric!
