Imam Jamil Al-Amin, Presente!

Revolurionary Jamil Al-Amin rerumed o the ancestors on November 23,
2025 after

vears in federal prison.
In the words of his son,

Inna Lilahi wa Inna Uayhi Raji'un from Allah we come, surely to Allah is
our Return. 1 lost my father today.

Ya Allah please accept my father, Imam Jamil Al-Amin as a shaheed, a
martyr, a dedicated servant to You ya Allah please make his grave
spacious and reserve for him the most beautiful spot in your paradise,
please grant him peace, Ameen.

15 no longer free my father, my father is Free.

As Black Alliance for Peace Memorialized,

To speak of Imam Jamil Al-Amin (formerly H. Rap Brown) is to speak of
a life lived in courageous chapters. As the Chairman of the Student
Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), his voice, sharp as a

ncontempt s
scalpel and uncompromising as truth, cut through the illusions of a
nation in denial. He was, as he famously declared, “a revolutionary,”
and his very existence was a challenge 1o the violent architecture of white
supremacy. His leadership was a dear call that moved from the plea for
rights 10 the demand for power. He did 50 in a 1965 meeting with
President Lyndon Johnson, demanding protection for voting rights
workers in Selma, Alabama, while other “leaders” present were just
happy o be at the white house.

His legacy, however, extends far beyond the powerfi oratory of the 19605
and his written word in his autobiography, Die Nigger Diel. His
transformation into Imam Jamil Al-Amin represented a decp, spiritual
journey and a continuation of his revolutionary work through the
disciplines of fuith, community building, and moral dlarity. In West
Atlanta, he was not just a leader but a pillar, working to create a self-
sufficient Black community grounded in Islamic principles and social
justice. 1t was here that the full depth of his political vision matured,
most critically in what he termed “the politics of education.”

Imam Jamil's “politics of education” was a radical framework for
intellectual and spiritual liberation. He invited a clear, unflinching
introspection into the use of U.S. propaganda as a primary weapon to
deplete and dismantle the revolutionary fervor of the Black masses. He
understood that after the open brutality of five hoses and police dogs came
another insidious assault: a media and cultural narrative designed to
confuse, co-opt, and corrupt our understanding of our own condition and
our own power. He taught that 1o truly be free, we must first decolonize
our minds, 10 see through the manufactured reality that justifies our
oppression and sows internal division. This message remains a crtical,
wrgent tool in our ongoing struggle in the battle of ideas.

1t is precisely this unwavering darity that made him a permanent target
of the state. He was under COINTELPRO surveillance and was listed by
name in the 1967 FBI memo which established the plan to “expose,
disrupt, misdivect, discredit, or otherwise neutralize the activities” of
Brown and others in the liberation movement. His 2002 conviction for

. ncontempt
the alleged murder of a sheriff’s deputy was a vendetta realized, a judicial
Iynching designed to silence a voice that could not be co-opted.

The facts scream of its injustice: the confession of another man; evidence
that should have exonerated him; a gag order to silence his defense; and
the unprecedented, punitive measure of holding a state prisoner in a
Jederal supermas prison, exiled from his attorneys, his family, and his
community. For over twenty years, he endured the slow violence of medical
neglect while incarcerated — a passive death sentence hoping nature would

Jinish what the courts began, a state execution by another name.

His body was caged, but his spirit remained free. Rest in power, Imam
Jamit Al-Amin.

Free All Political Prisoners!

NOTE TO AMERIC

If it takes my death to organize my people to revolt against you
and to organize your jails to revolt against you, and to organize
your troops to revolt against yo, and to organize your children,
your God, your poor, your country, and to organize mankind to
rejoice in your destruction and ruin, then here is my life. BUT,

MY SOUL BELONGS TO MY PEOPLE!

“Attack the Enemy on All Fronts”:
Solidarity with Indonesian Anarchists
Facing Repression

After the mass revolts in ion of the

August 2025, where a lage se
population rose up and attacked the state’s basic corruption and
inequality, 43 anarchist comrades are imprisoned at the West Java
‘paramilitary police compound in Bandung, There is no access for anyone
but the families, and even this is minimal. The detainees have been cut off
and they are being used in a mainstream media manipulation campaign by
ate. Many of the imprisoned comeades are very young,
They are all accused of being part of the individualist-nihilist “Chaos Star”
network, which is a fabrication created by the police for the purpose of
their prosecution. The police claim that the imprisoned comrades were
cadicalised by ‘Leaders’ and funded by foreign anarchist organisations. The
cops point to the existence of banners, flags, books, pamphlets and music,
‘which is in the possession of the detainees, as commonly held items
denotative of membership of this “Chaos Star” organisation.

the Indonesian

Some of the comrades are accused of serious direct actions such as
acks, arson, rot, property destruction, etc. Lastly some of the
comrades are accused of instigation, either online, for their blogs o social
medias or for their prominent” role. They are isolated in the paramilitary
compound and the Legal Aid Institute (LBH) in Bandung has been
blocked from representing them. An option is to hire a private lawyer but
that would cost tens of millions (rupiah). We ask for heightened attention
o this dangerous situation. Torture and abuse are being widely used on
the detainees, confirmed by the families. The young comeades were
injured and hurt until they gave false confessions that they were even at
the demonstrations and/or part of specific organisations, as they were
subjected to the brutality of the paramilitary police. This is a known fact
and a reality that we have to confront. In the wake of the insurrection
across Tndonesia against the right-wing ex-military Prabowo Subianto, the
young people and the anarchist movement has been severely repressed by

malotov at

ncontempt
the regime. Many, young people have been caught up in the police assaults
and regardless of their supposed “guilt” or “non-guilt”, we extend owr
solidarity with them, and to all those who struggle against social
oppression, prisons, police and the state.

alang Hitam / ABC shared a statement from some of the imprisoned

anarchists at the West Java Pacamilitary police compound:

Greetings to friends and to enemies alike,

Even now, the structures of power—ancient, rigid, and towering—continue
10 stand. Yet last August, people cracked the illusion of their invincibility.
They showed that nothing is beyond transformation when owr desires
converge into a force capable of opening pathways toward the worlds we
long to create.

We are individualists because we refuse the ideological fantasies of
withered anarchists who preach like missionaries of a fuding religion. We
are individualists because we belicve in an anarchy of imagination—
creative, diverse, unbound. We are individualists who hold that nihilism is
a concrete passage toward self-actualization, beyond the messianic dead-
ends of dividing reality into “good” and “evil,” knowing full well the
complexity of life cannot be squeesed into the decaying relics of Judeo-
Christian doctrine—relics that should be buried like the myths of prophets.
and their fading gods. We are individualists because we believe in the
absolute autonomy of each person to shape the life they desire—yet we also
believe in cooperation, in the equality of individuals who pursue their
desives together. Our anti-social anarchy is an active refusal of the old
values reproduced endlessly in everyday life.

At the same time we are bewildered, amused, and entertained by the
foolish accusations hurled by some social anarchists who label us “purists”
as if our rejection of organization were born of loyalty to some dlassical
anarchist canon—an ideology drenched in Eurocentrism, streaked with the
colonial residue of Western civilization, and infused with the
Enlightenment’s humanism, the very root of authoritarian

s ncontempt
democracy. We reject all ideologies. The rebels of Paris Commune in
1871, the revolutionaries of Spain in 1936, the dreamers of Paris in 1968,
and those of August 2025—all remind us of bricf lives that were truly
worth living beyond any ideologies.

From behind these walls and bars, we send a sharp wind toward every
wild soul, reminding them that they are not alone against the repulsive
realities engineered by the powerfil. The compass of anarchy draws us
together at the threshold between fiee will and the wil to power. We
belong 10 no formal anarchist organization (spare ws). We are not part of
impotent collectives like the PRISONERS” UNION, (Serikat Tahanan)
nor of any group that claims us for their own—much less the so-called
anarchist movement with its church-like rigidity and archaic morality.
Toward the fusion of social and individual anarchy, and toward the

negation of every radical movement that mirrors—or even surpasses—
the mental and physical prisons of the state and capitalism!

This is an open letter to all anarchist of praxis. Fuck all idols, burn all
radical bibles, and attack the enemy on all fronts.

Prisoners for Palestine Hunger Strike

Palestine Action UK political prisoners have been on hunger strike for more
than 35 days, fighting for their five demands

1 An end to censorship and surveillance of communications.
2 Immediate release on bail for all prisoners on remand.

3 A fair trial and full disclosure of government and arms export records.
4 Deproscribe Palestine Action and end the use of counter-terrorism laws.
5 The permanent shutdown of Elbit Systems sites in the UK.

Teuta Floxha was the 5th prisoner to join the hunger strike on November 9.
T was hos
after 20 days on hunger strike.

lized on November 28 due to her rapidly deteriorating health

T was arvested in the dawn raids against Palestine activists on 19th
November 2024 by counter-terrorism police in the third wave of Filton
arrests on allegations of being connected to the Filton action, which saw
over £1 million in damage caused to Elbir's research centre for Israeli
weapons making her one of the Filton 24. Although the terror charges were
dropped, she has been held in remand ever since and has spent her 29th
birthday behind bars.

T previously blockaded the entrance of Elbit's Bristol HQ, forcing the
Isnaeli weapons maker to dlose, and soon after, she also disrupted Elbit-
investor BNY Mellow’s office in Manchester. She was moved from HMP
Bronsefield on the day MPs voted to proscribe Palestine Action.

On 11 August 2025, T went on hunger strike in protest of the prison's
violations of her fundamental rights such as the cancellation of her
recreational and educational activities, the withholding of her mail, and
her removal from a job in the prison library. She also reported
mistreatment by guards, who constantly referved o her as a terrorist. She
has both been called a terrorist by prison staff and told she belongs 1o a
tervorist group, continuously being subject to retrospective punishment

o ncontempt
after the proscription of Palestine Action before, during and after her
Iunger strike which she ended in victory after 28 days of resistance.
During T's hunger strike, she was joined by two political prisoners in the
US, Casey Goonan and Mohammed Malik in a stunning action of fearless
‘and humbling solidarity transcending man-made imaginary borders.

In her reflections on her hunger strike, she cites the Islamic proverb, “Our
mercy and compassion for each other is like that of a body. When any limb
aches, the whole body reels with sleeplessness and fever,” contemplating
that, with this view we accept that global solidarity movements
constitute one body. What affects one affects us all. Therefore in the same
vein we say there is no freedom until Palestine is free.”

Kamean Ahmed was the Gth prisoner to join hunger strike on November
10. Kamean was also hospitalized affer co

sing with low blood sugar
levels, indicating hypoglycaemia.

Kamran was arrested in a violent dawn raid by counter-terrorism police on

19th November 2024 during which his elderly parents were also denied
food and medication for hours. He was then remanded to prison after
being charged with a non-terrorism related offence on allegations of being
connected 1o the Filton action, which saw over £1 million in damage
caused to Elbit's rescarch centre for Isracli weapons- making him one of
the Filton 24. During his time in prison, Kamran's fundamental rights
have been consistently abused by the prison, including restrictons on visits
and mail, being arbitrarily subjected to isolation and limited access 1o the
prison library.

In his reflections after his court hearing in March 2025, Kamran shares
Jiow he would have responded to the judge: "As with your decision about
Jiow 10 proceed with our case, you spit in the face of many before me who

fought against oppression. You spit in the fuce of the suffagettes, who like
us, sat in jail, some 13 minutes down from here, at the now closed

Holloway Road Prison. You spit on the face of Anne Frank, who wished
someone would put a halt 1o that genocide (Holocaust). You spit on the
Jace of every American who refused to pillage Vietnam. What the 3 events
have in common is that people like you had the power to stop or end it.
But it took: those with a bit of humanity instead to step in and outnumber
those who care more for their job or the vehicle they drive. Before I was
remanded 1 remember reading something along the lines of; “You ask what
you would've done then? You're doing it now.

“On the other hand, facing the enemy on your own is also a special thing.

i released on temporary bail for his brother's wedding
Asked in an interview about why he jumped bail, Sean responded,

I'm simply 100 sensible. 1 know that the courts and the system has been
against us and against justice ever since there's been foreign interference in
pro-Palestine protest cases. So 1 simply refuse ot be a prisoner of war by
Isracl in a British prison. That's how I saw myself—a political prisoner.
And 1just fet that on top of the fact that I've been remanded
twice, plus in both instances the charges were dopped after spending a
period of time on remand with extensive bail conditions when 1 did get
bail. It’s simply not sensible to play along with this pantomime.

This is just stripping protestors’ rights in favour of the Isracli arms
industry.

15 important 1o talk about these things, 1o talk about how unlawfidl the
British government has been, not only in their complicity in enabling a
genocide and failure to stop it, which they absolutely have a right to do.
But their unlanful use of the counter-terrorism police on pro-Palestine
protestors. o, you know, it's my goal and aim to expose all of these things
while 1 have the opportunity, as well as to raise the voices of the Filton 24
who are in prison and are heavily censored, and people can’t hear from
them as freely as you can other prisoners.

In a statement provided to Electronic Intifada, S

“They are the best of us, and we must rally behind their fight. While I am
Jree, Lwill raise their voice beyond the prison walls, for everything that they

Call to Action for Xinachtli

Chicano political prisoner Xinachtli's health is worsening in Texas prisons.
Supporters report that he can barely walk, stand, or use the bathroom, and
has fallen twice, cracking his head on the ground. Xinachili has also
experienced rapid weight loss and increasing difficulty breathing, He is
curtently in the medical department of McConnell without a diagonsis,
‘without access to his medical records, and without the ability to call
anyone outside. During his time in the infirmary, prison staff threw away
his belongings, “lost” his commissary card, and have intentionally given
him incorrect forms to obstruct medical visitations and access to care.

Xinachtli's condition has reached a tipping point: the physical, mental,
and spiritual harm he is experiencing is irmeversible without immediate
intervention.

Texas has used medical neglect, isolation, and targeted retaliation to
silence revolutionary elders and political prisoners for decades. We have
watched the government kill leaders whose teachings and resistance
shaped our movements, leaving us with memories instead of comrades.
As Xinachtli has said, “They woulds't even do this to animals.”

Every day they deny him medical care, they move closer to turning his
unjust sentence into a death sentence.

According to a recent statement by the DFW Support Committee,

“The superseding indictment makes unproven laims, mischaracterises

with terrorism and do not belong in an indictment,” continued Shiver.
“By associating the Prairieland case with Antifa, the government is
using terrorism charges to spread fear and intimidation, and to carry out
sweeping political repression.”

Prejudicial statements related to these cases have been made repeatedly
by officials at the highest levels of government, undermining the
defendants’ ability 1o get a fuir trial. The Trump administration has
publicly daimed that the Prairieland case is the first legal case against

Antifa, while Trump declared Antifi a domestic terrorist organization.
On September 25, the White House released the National Security

Yet, supporters are refuting the claims of terrorism and planned violence.
“As the Prairicland case progresses, it looks more and more like

and now De:

back in custody after voluntarily surrendering himself at
FMC Fort Worth surrounded by supporters

Des also released a public statement on December 4:

Hello! First of all. Al honor and glory to creator for granting me the
miracle of being here.

My name is Daniel Sanchez, “Des,” and I've lived in the Dallas—Fort
Worth area most of my life. 1 have been incarcerated in a federal facil
about 5 months since July 6.

Twant to be very dlear. 1 did not participate. 1 was not aware nor did I

ncontempt
have any knowledge about the events that transpired on July 4 outside
the Prairieland Detention Center. Despite not having any knowledge or
not having been near the area at all, 1 was violently arvested at gunpoint
Jfor allegedly making a “wide turn.” My feeling is that I was only
arrested because I'm married to Mari Rueda, who is being accused of
being at the noise demo showing support to migrants who are facing
deportation under deplorable conditions. For this accusation, she’s being
threatened with a life sentence in prison.

My charge is allegedly having a box containing magazine “zines,”
books, and artwork. ltems that are in the possession of millions of
people in the United States. ltems that are available fiee online, and
available to purchase at stores and online even at places like Amazon.
Items that should be protected under the First Amendment “freedom of
speech.” If this is happening to me now, it's only a matter of time before
it happens to you.

1 believe there's been almost 20 people arrested in supposed relation to
this public noise demo. More than half of those were arrested days later
despite not being in the area and are now facing a slew of outrageous
charges, in what seems like a political persecution to instil fear on
People exercising their First Amendment right.

On November 2 around 9 a.m. while stillin federal custody, 1 was
suddenly ordered o pack: all of my property, rushing me and refusing to
let me kenow where 1 was going. I began o think: the worst: that I was
being moved away from loved ones for no reason other than to continue
10 put pressure on me 10 sign a plea agreement for something 1 didn't do.
Later on, 1 was told my charges had been dismissed and 1 was being
released. But since 1 didn't hear from my lawyer, I thought they were
messing with me. Two hours later, 1 was being walked out of the prison
with no paperwork. It flt like psychological torture, the anxiety, the
wncertainty. 1 imagined they would just wait for me to walk out to arrest
me again somehow.

The last few days have been very surreal, and it's been a roller coaster of

N ncontempt
emotions, The fear and ansiety that they would raid my loved ones
again or try 10 add more ficttious charges. To the love, joy, and laughter
of seeing my family and hugging them one more time after the trauma
we all endured. It's a blessing, and we celebrated my birthday, Xmas, and
New Years in one night.

I'm not a violent person. 1 love people and animals, walking in nature,
making ar, reading, cooking vegan food for people, teaching kids, and
doing fundraisers for people and animals that need help. I co-parent a
really cool stepdaughter who is amazing and super funny, and tragically,
is now having to live without two of her most important adults, [me and.
Mari,] who were abruptly taken away from her. U'm thankfu for
cveryone showing her and my family love and care while we overcome
this tragic situation.

This has been a confusing, bittersweet moment, embracing my loved
ones, just 1o be taken away from them again. The charges I and others
are facing are scary, and I would be lying if I said I'm not scared. I love
this country and the promise of freedom of speech, justice, equity, and the
pursuit of happiness. U'm not hiding. I'm not fleeing. And obvious I've
never been a danger 10 the community. I'm turning myself in for trial
because U'm innocent.

With a desire for a world ful of love, kindness, empathy, equity, and
Jreedom. Like in sunflowers breaking through concrete. Like butterflies
ying freely. Under the same moon. 1 will continue to walk with dignity.
1 have faith and living hope in my heart.

Thank. you all for the suppor. I can feel all of your love. I'm beyond
grateful for every letter, poem, book, donation, and every prayer.

Honor creator and all existence.
Love your neighbor as yourself.

No one is free, until all are free.
