CFRC Prison Radio will be live on the airwaves on CFRC 101.9 FM in Kingston, Ontario, this Thursday, August 10th to mark Prisoners’ Justice Day.
Tune in at 101.9 FM or stream on cfrc.ca from 7-9pm to hear our annual memorial segments, where we’ll read from a list of names of those who have died inside Canadian prisons and jails since the first PJD in 1974. Our signal reaches to Millhaven Institution, where PJD started, Bath Institution, Joyceville Institution, Collins Bay Institution, the Quinte Detention Centre and the Cape Vincent Correctional Centre in upstate New York.
After the memorial we’ll be hosting a request hour where we’ll play music and supportive messages going out to prisoners who may be fasting, refusing work and holding vigils and events on the 10th to honour those who have died behind bars.
To send music requests and supportive messages, please email us at [email protected] or leave us a voicemail at our new number, which is 613-840-5186.
