So as many of you know, I’ve been pretty sick since January of this year. I’ve seen over 10 different doctors, been to dozens upon dozens of dead-end appointments, and taken thousands of dollars worth of testings on my heart, lungs, & blood, all with very little to no significant findings - yet...

Apparently this is Darby Tillis's limo. He's a death row exoneree, an activist for criminal legal system reform, and a musician. #chicago #edgewater

Cheerful graffiti in Rogers Park.

#Rogers Park

The idea of the lawyer as a professionally trained technical expert . . . is an expression of the structure of liberal ideology as a whole. Few radical lawyers think that they believe in this ideological structure, but we act as if we do when we behave merely as representatives. In our private lives we may support major social change, but in our public lives we often act like agents of the State, which is to say agents of liberal ideology.

Peter Gabel and Paul Harris in "Building Power and Breaking Images: Critical Legal Theory and the Practice of Law." This article never gets less relevant.

Last week, I saw Damien Echols present at a small bookstore in Cambridge. The most vocal member of the wrongfully convicted West Memphis Three was released from Arkansas death row in 2011. In 2012, the documentary West of Memphis came out, as did Mr. Echol's book, Life After Death. The event last week was mainly a book signing, and he spoke only briefly about his experiences. Mr. Echols discussed his experiences in prison, including: spending 10 years in solitary confinement, being beaten by guards and fearing for his life, being dramatically underweight (60 lbs less than now), damaging his eyesight by reading for too many hours a day in poor light, and developing a Zen meditation practice that kept him sane and extended up to eight hours per day. Central to his experience was his early drive to self-educate, since he had only a ninth-grade education. He discussed how he developed little methods of coping, such as how he watched baseball in prison, not because he really liked sports at all, but because there was something calming about it, "like a rocking chair." In the end, he took a special Alford plea that allowed him to get out of prison immediately without admitting guilt, but which may limit his ability to recover any money for the 18 years he spent wrongfully incarcerated.

I haven't yet read his book, but I bought a copy and I'm looking forward to it. Until then, here's a link to Mr. Echols in conversation with Henry Rollins at a November 2012 New York Public Library event. Enjoy!

(Some will say this is not the time. I disagree. This is the time when every mixed emotion needs to find voice.)

Since his arrest in January, 2011, I have known more about the events that began this spiral than I have wanted to know. Aaron consulted me as a friend and lawyer. He...

A poster by Sublevarte Colectivo, shown today when they presented as part of a Counter Culture/Counter Power workshop at the Boston Anarchist Bookfair. The Acteal Massacre was the murder of more than 40 indigenous men, women, and children by paramilitary forces, in a nonviolent community supportive of the Zapatista uprising. "PRI" in the boot on the right is the ruling government at the time, the Partido Revolucionario Institucional, that many hold accountable for the murders. Here is an excellent source for more info on the Massacre and the government's role.
