This episode features an interview with Andrew from NYC Anarchist Black Cross, specifically focusing on their Project Fang initiative. Project Fang is a much-needed attempt to fill a gap in the ongoing support work for earth and animal liberation prisoners in the United States. From the NYC Anarchist Black Cross site, "As people with loved ones, friends, and comrades in prison, we know how necessary and reinvigorating visits can be. They help us stay connected with one another and with the struggles we all care about. They help us overcome the separation of walls and wire. Unfortunately, visits are cost prohibitive for many of our friends, families, and comrades.This project aims to help with the financial strain imposed on the families and loved ones of prisoners by providing cash allowances for travel expenses to and from prisons." We also discuss NYC ABC's bi-weekly political prisoner letter writing dinners that include a vegan meal in a very deliberate way, the potential for further repression against environmental activists as instances of direct action for the earth increase, some of the folks that Project Fang supports, veganism in the anarchist community and how an anarchist analysis of non-human animals has changed over time.
