Item description from seller

Pamphlet collecting the writings of the Auburn 6, the six inmates persecuted for the eight-hour inmate takeover of Auburn Correctional Facility in November 1970, following a Black Solidarity Day action. Published by Prison Solidarity Committee in New York City, Prisoners Call Out: Freedom collects statements, letters, poems, photos, and more documenting the experience, expression, and repression of the Auburn 6, and was published to raise awareness and funds for their legal defense. The inital riot and prison takeover was reported to have been started by 400 mostly-black prisoners, with virtually the entire population of the prison participating by its end. As a result, many of the prisoners were transferred; ironically, many to Attica, where the following Fall they would have the chance to help lead another prison uprising. Very Good or better. Wraps lightly toned and edgeworn; one gentle crease spanning lower rear corner; contents clean and binding sound. Saddle-stapled in illustrated card wraps. 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches. 52pp, illus.…
