WHEN ACTIVISTS FACE REPRESSION, WE STAND WITH THEM.

We provide support for people who are arrested at protests, or otherwise
prosecuted for their movement involvement1.


PROTEST IS VITAL TO A FREE SOCIETY, BUT WITH RESISTANCE COMES REPRESSION.

From the Civil Rights Era to today, Atlanta has strong traditions of dissent.
Protest movements play a critical role in the struggle for social justice. But
when people stand up for what’s right, they often face the risk of arrest and
imprisonment.



“We were doing a protest against police violence. When I got arrested, I wasn’t
sure anyone even knew I was in jail. But the Solidarity Fund got me out. I’m
happy because I get to be reunited with my family.” – Legend, a prison justice
activist


THE ANTIDOTE TO REPRESSION IS SOLIDARITY

Getting arrested can be very demoralizing. It can make targets feel isolated,
overwhelmed, even abandoned.

By supporting arrestees, we show that nobody in our movements will be left
behind. Solidarity builds trust and makes us all feel stronger.


WHAT WE DO

Resources we provide for protesters experiencing repression.

JAIL SUPPORT

Experienced volunteers track arrestees through the criminal justice system,
helping to ensure that their rights are respected.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BAIL

As funds allow, the Solidarity Fund provides cash to get arrestees released from
jail as soon as possible1.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ACCESS TO REPRESENTATION

We work with arrestees to help them get access to a lawyer, and assist them in
navigating the legal system.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1 The Atlanta Solidarity Fund provides assistance for arrestees who are unable
to pay bail or other expenses through their own resources of those of their
family and friends.


WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU

Want to support our efforts? Here are a few ways.

DONATE MONEY

Bail costs a lot of money. We depend on contributions from ordinary people.
Please give what you can!

SPREAD THE WORD

Share this on social media, tell your friends, co-workers, congregation, and
fellow activists.

ORGANIZE A FUNDRAISER

Mobilize your community! Organize a benefit show or a donor drive.  Contribute a
percentage of sales towards the Solidarity Fund.

CONTRIBUTE LEGAL SERVICES

If you are a lawyer or other legal professional, and are interested in offering
pro-bono help to activists, we want to hear from you!
