Mother Prisons LETTERS TO MOTHER PRISONS "LET MY PEOPLE GO" I have just returned from England and Europe where I had the opportunity to meet with people from all over the world. I tried to tell them of our struggle in the U.S.A. and since some of our laws and orders are different it was hard to tell them of our immediate struggle as people like to deal with names (Soledad Bros, Angela. Huey.etc.) So I felt that in order to bring some of these names into the heart of our people all over the world and make them human again I could share some of the mail I received from these beautiful people, some of the ones that made me want to fight and struggle for every man and woman in these inhuman concentration camps. Some of the warmest experiences from in that hole I've had. After visiting with them and seeing the way they're shackled and chained yet so glad to see our faces and want you to believe they're okay, makes me very sad after complaining about small immaterial things. I hope that people who read this can visualize the burden the brothers and sisters are bearing and will come to their aid. Inez Williams FLEETA DRUMGO Fleeta Drumgo B 10837 Sept. 24,1972 Note I received when he and John Cluchette were in court Aug. 26, 1972 after giving the My Revolutionary Mother, affidavit of inmates telling of their plight of Aug. 21 when Comrade George Jackson was Power to the People!

I still don't. What really is there to say? We both know how the system works. We both have tasted frequently of its bitterness, and seldom, if ever, of its sweetness. I wish I could tell you not to worry and you would stop; but that's fruitless. Greetings Mother, It's a mother's instinct to worry. When I was facing that direct ultimate i tried to keep my mother from worrying, but I failed. So once more I must try again. So what do you want to talk about?

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand marking: or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

We knew only that they were different, to be feared, and in that fear was included the hostility of the powerless against the powerful, the poor against the rich, the worker against the employer; and the poorly dressed against the well dressed. This is Stamps, a small town in Arkansas, in the United States, in the 1930s. The population is almost evenly divided between black and white and totally divided by where and how they live. As Maya Angelou says, there is very little contact between the two races. Their houses are in different parts of town and they go to different schools, colleges, stores, and places of entertainment. When they travel, they sit in separate parts of buses and trains. After the American Civil War (1861—65), slavery was ended in the defeated Southern states, and many changes were made by the national government to give black people more rights.

    1. 6. She’s gone from earth’s toil No prouder parents than we were, To her heavenly rest, Nor with greater right to pride, To be home for all time Till our dear son, scarce grown a man, In the dear Saviour’s breast; Who fought and bled and died, And there when our sun, That freedom and the rights of men Sinks low in the sky, Might have in peace, new birth. God grant that we meet Then ere he’d time to see it come, In the sweet bye and bye. Departed from the earth. 2. 7. If there could be more bitter pain We bade him a last and fond farewell, That hearts could suffer here, Ere his ship put out to sea; Than losing our beloved one – And whispered our prayers ‘Twould be ne’er having known you, dear. For his safe return, But it wasn’t meant to be. 3. For God in His infinite wisdom, Saw fit to ignore our prayer Sleep on our beloved, And took him instead to heaven While years come and go; To rest and await us there. Each brings us but closer to you And the day we shall meet 8. In the bright afterglow, When our life’s lonely journey is through. Ever loving, ever true, To the task God set of you; 4. Mother dear, He knew ‘twas done, So called you home, our dearest one. The hungry years have bitten deep Into the cheeks you found so fair; 9. And the frost of many winters gleams In silvered lacings through my hair; Though pain be our constant companion, Yet while awaiting the call up yonder, And missing you darkens our life; Where we’ll meet at last once more – There’s comfort in knowing you’re happy, I know you’ll recognize me darling, Dear Mother, and dearly loved wife.

    Love's Way Talks with Billy Boy and Marianne about Life and Its Beginnings By ARTHUR WHITEFIELD SPALDING Illustrated by ROBERT M. ELDRIDGE 1941 Electronic Edition 2010 (Slight Editing) Dedication To my little children that were, and to their children, and to all the dear children in all the world who love the truth, and who want to know all the truth, and who by God's grace will keep the truth, this book of truth is given. UNCLE ARTHUR. Preface: You Will Be Thankful WHEN CHILDREN ASK That You Have This Little Guidebook Love’s Way HOW much shall I tell my child? And at what age? And how shall I do it? All parents face these questions-nearly all do so with admitted confusion of thought and some measure of embarrassment. The idea that ignorance is essential to innocence has been pretty well exploded by physicians, social workers, and juvenile court officers, all of whom testify that much of the heartache and heartbreak of life is due to the fact that ignorance as a safeguard has proved a disastrous failure. Thousands of parents who know their duty, but not how to approach it, will welcome this volume in which the way is made plainer by an author who makes a sound Christian approach to a difficult problem. No one who stops to think will fail to see that this instruction through parents- or through such books as parents might put into the hands of their children-is infinitely better than the usual unclean knowledge learned from street acquaintances or picked up from unscrupulous purveyors of vulgarities.

  • Softly Written, Softly Spoken
    Softly Written, Softly Spoken www.trisomy.org Softly Written, Softly Spoken An Anthology of Poems by Families and Friends of www.trisomy.org Edited and Collected by John C. Carey Lisa Hooper Copyright 2002, 2015 by SOFT Foreword For centuries scholars, literary critics and poets have wrestled with the question “what is poetry?” While various terms and phrases have been proposed as an all-encompassing definition of poetry, the one concept that is consistent and included in most definitions is the notion of “experience”: Poetry speaks to us in the special language of experience, usually about some aspect of the human condition. Families of infants and children with the medical conditions of trisomy 18, trisomy 13 and related chromosome disorders certainly relate to this concept of “experience.” They speak as human beings who have experienced the pregnancy, birth, and life of a person who often lives for a brief period of time or who lives with the challenge of significant motor and developmental disability. Trisomy 18 and 13 syndromes together occur in about 1 in 3,000 infants. This figure reflects not only the births of children who are live-born but also infants who die inside their mother’s womb. When one adds to this figure the many other chromosome syndromes and related medically serious syndromes, the actual frequency of SOFT conditions goes up and approaches more commonly known genetic conditions, such as cystic fibrosis and Down syndrome. In trisomy 18 and 13, over half of all infants die before they are born and of those who come to birth, about half die in the first 7 days of life.
