THE WHITE HERO MATT HALE

I just found out that Matt Hale’s mother died a few months ago.

If you don’t know, Matt was a notable movement figure before he was sentenced to decades in prison over some totally made-up murder solicitation charge that was fabricated by a hostile actor intent on damaging our movement and our people. He was my friend in the CMU at USP Marion.

Matt’s projected release date is 04/29/2036

When I left Marion in November, he had just had all his correspondence suspended for six months. Matt constantly faced harsh scrutiny even by CMU standards.

I am now informed that they did not restore his correspondence after that six-month period expired, so he cannot even receive letters of support as he copes with the passing of his mother while he is in prison.

Those monsters… to do this to a man in his position…

I never knew Matt to want money while he was there, but I can think of a way that you can send Matt Hale a message while he is suffering.

Send him a money order for $14.88

You can do this through the postal service or through Western Union or MoneyGram electronically.

And as a brief aside, remember this moment next time you hear anybody talk recklessly about even appearing to do anything illegal, and especially when you hear people who haven’t done time speak lightly about prison. Like it’s some kind of routine inconvenience that individuals just owe on the basis of politics.

It’s not what’s going on inside that you have to worry about, it’s when you’re in there and the world keeps spinning and your mother dies and you can’t go to her funeral.

That is the gravity of this shit."
