Every year, Critical Resistance (CR) sends personalized postcards with messages of love and solidarity to each of our imprisoned comrades and loved ones. Connect with a chapter near you and attend one of CR’s virtual or in-person postcard writing events in New York, Oakland, Portland or Los Angeles.

For all events (virtual or in-person), we ask you RSVP beforehand so we can prepare enough postcards sets for everyone attending. Dates, times, links to RSVP, and more details for each event below. Please also note:

• If you’re attending a virtual event online (with CRLA), please note the earlier deadline to RSVP so that we can mail you your set of postcards to address beforehand.

• For in-person events (with CRNYC, CROak & CRPDX), we’re asking all participants and supporters to stay masked when indoors to continue protecting our community against COVID-19 and other health risks.
