Free All Political Prisoners. [Drop title].

(n. p.): Ghetto 5, (n. p.). 11 x 8-1/2 inches. Flyer, printed recto only. White stock printed in black. B&w illustration featuring police officers and prison guards as pigs, a Black man being held up by a police officer; and a group of men in prison uniforms escaping the prison. Old folds; toning; stamp "Boss Archives" to upper margin. Good.

Flyer issued by Ghetto 5, an organization about which we have been able to find little information. The flyer reads in full, "As we all know, there are some prisoners in prison that have not been out in 10 to 15 years or more. We aren't saying we can free all of them but we can try to help the. Yes, we can try to help them. Such as buying books, literature and other little items. Your money you give goes into a political savings account and spent on those things. We have lawyers to handle their cases which we have to pay for. Free All Political Prisoners."

Given the unfocused (to say the least) aims of the organization, it is unclear how serious it was, or if it was even legitimately working to free political prisoners -- it reads very much like a scam to this jaded cataloguer.

OCLC locates one possible holding, in the Gildersleeve Berkeley Social Protest Collection.
