Cleveland - Lucasville 5 Defense Comm. 4/11-12
What actually happened at the Lucasville prison rebellion 15 years ago? Who
really killed Officer Vallandingham?
What was the aftermath? What happened to the prisoners who brought about a
negotiated settlement?
Why are there five men on death row and 25 others with sentences up to life
in prison?
Whose notion of justice is being served and how did that come about?
You may find some answers to these questions or you may find more questions
- at two staged readings of "Lucasville: the Untold Story of a Prison
Uprising." Please join us on Friday, April 11, 7:30 at C-Space community
center at 44th and Clark, or Saturday, April 12, 7:30 at Lil Africa
community center at 6816 Superior Ave. Meet the family members of the
prisoners who are cast members in the readings and other activists working
for the freedom of those who have been wrongfully convicted.
Please distribute the attached flyer to your email lists, and print it out
to distribute and post wherever possible.
