 Tuesday December 10, 2002 19:59 by Anarchist Support anarsuppdublin at hotmail dot com c/o PO Box 3355 Dublin 7
 censorship of anarchist literature Rob Thaxton and his cellmate Brian McCarvill have made an appeal for help in challenging the american prison system. The prison officials there view anarchists as a streetgang and under their 'security threat group' rules, routinely reject mail, 'zines and other publications that exhibit circle As (anarchy signs). Rob and Brian are asking people to send in postcards that display a large anarchy symbol on the front with the words 'this is not a gang symbol'. They also ask that the senders include a return address and a full name so the prisoncrats have no excuse to throw the postcards away. In Robs words ' we want to make the prison censors hate their job, since they lack the cognitive skill to think about what they are doing.' Any help will be appreciated and stamps avaliable on request if needed. Rob Thaxton#12112716 OSP, 2605 State Street,Salem, OR 97310. USA Brian McCarvill#11037967

Dessie O'Hagan did it 30 years ago in the Irish Times with his "Letters from Long Kesh" but then the Irish Times was not quite as much a rag as it is now and had a more enlightened editor in Douglas Gageby.
I miss his style.
