This section aims to highlight the importance of prisoner solidarity by means of links to prisoner support websites. As well as supporting class struggle prisoners 'at home', in many countries the state is more repressive than it is in UK, and anarchists find it very hard to organise at all. Some have to go into exile in other countries to avoid imprisonment. So the link between support of asylum seekers, refugees and prisoners cannot be overstated.

The AF is directly involved in prisoner and asylum seeker/refugee support. If you are interested in writing to activists in prison, please get in touch. You may also find info about demos and other activities in support of prisoners via our News Diary page. On-line articles about prisoners and political repression can be found in Organise!, the AF's magazine, and resistance, the our monthly bulletin. Please visit these pages to buy a supporter subscription for a prisoner.

Be aware that addresses and circumstances may have changed since the older articles were published.
