The No More Prisons CD is selling well, but it needs to be selling better. A lot of people have had concerns about having to buy the CD from big companies, but it's so the Soundscan numbers will be high enough for other players in the industry to notice. If you aren't in New York, you can order it from Amazon.com. Copies of the 12" are still available from Sandbox Automatic.

From the Village Voice:

"At Oberlin College in Ohio, the Sodexho Marriott boycott was only part of
an ongoing anti-private prison campaign. Recently, students invited state
prison guards to campus to speak about the perils of privately run prisons.
(Many correction officers at state-run prisons oppose private prisons, which
are not unionized.) Posters plastered around campus advertise an
anti-Sodexho message: "Did you know Oberlin College has made you an
accomplice to the incarceration of people for profit?"

Sat April 29th is the Youth Communications Expo at Juvenile Hall in SF.

On the New Orleans front, the Juvenile Justice Project of LA are good
friends of mine. They've now kicked the asses of 2 private detention facilities in LA. LOVE them!
