Our Cry: A letter from inside Delaney Hall
“We feel vulnerable, in a way, kidnapped or detained without justification.”
“We feel vulnerable, in a way, kidnapped or detained without justification.”
This letter was signed by nearly 300 people, including over 50 women, from inside Delaney Hall.
This letter was written in the midst of a massive work & hunger strike inside Delaney Hall. The authors describe the horrific conditions inside the facility, but the strike is not only about the conditions. Those detained at Delaney are demanding their freedom.
“We demand freedom, a fair trial, and for our rights to be respected.”
“Each one of us pray, we are from different cultures, nationalities, and religions, but at the end of the day we all pray to the same God, help with our process, we pray for our families, for other detainees that we don’t know their names but are here, women that are vulnerable without attorneys, without families, completely alone.”
