Manifesto: a written statement declaring publicly the intentions, motives, or views of its issuer.
Welcome to the Manifestos of Resistance, a space dedicated to the voices and collective demands of those striving for justice within the walls of Washington State's prisons. Here, you will find the guiding principles and declarations of purpose that drive Jailhouse Lawyers Speak Northwest. These manifestos (as more are added) articulate the harsh realities faced by incarcerated individuals and the fundamental changes they seek. Each document represents a call for systemic reform, advocating for dignity, human rights, and the restoration of justice. We invite you to explore these manifesto(s), understand our struggles, and join us in amplifying the voices of those who fight against the injustices of the prison-industrial complex.
