Films
Across the Walls is a documentary film that offers an intimate glimpse into the experiences of women sentenced to life in prison without parole in the state of Pennsylvania. After decades of activism and community building, recently Avis Lee and Paulette Carrington were released from life sentences after each serving over 40 years. As they adjust to life outside, they’ve kept their focus on organizing to end life without parole, and helping the women they left inside be released. Read this article that came out when the film was released.
Daughter’s Magazine
Daughters is a magazine founded by Sarita Miller (SCI Muncy) in collaboration with Let’s Get Free. The first issue was published in December of 2020. Daughters is a faith-based, political publication that aims to illuminate issues and perspectives, specifically those of women, pertaining to the crisis of mass incarceration in this country. A platform for us and by us, Daughters will be a pathway to the expression of our fears, our struggles, our pain and our needs. Although for now we are confined, our spirits and voices soar free.
Let’s Get Free’s Art Collection
Our permanent art collection is meant to be borrowed and utilize the art gallery as a tool for organizing for liberation. Consider bringing it to your space.
This is Me Poetry Book
This Is Me, the theme of Let’s Get Free’s 7th annual art exhibition, invited artists and poets to bring an introspective element to their pieces, uplifting the humanity and individuality of everyone in the movement to end death by incarceration.
Alongside visual art, this is the third exhibition including poetry. This year, 118 poets submitted over 125 poems, the
highest number of submissions Let’s Get Free has received
to date. Of these poets, 62 are in Pennsylvania and 56 are
out-of-state.
The Creative Resistance Committee is just one part of Let’s Get Free. We are a group working to end perpetual punishment, build a pathway out of the prisons back to our communities through commutation reform, support successful possibilities for people formerly and currently incarcerated, and shift to a culture of transformative justice.
