Corvid College Boston is now the Greater Boston Free School |
|
by Greater Boston Free School Collective, |
The following announcement is from an email sent by organizers of the Greater Boston Free School. Check out http://corvidcollege.wikidot.com/ for updates and contact information.
We who have been making Corvid College happen, since Eric’s departure in
September, are announcing our departure from Corvid. We have been running
hoedowns, classes, and bringing in new teachers, students and collective
members. Our efforts have been fruitful, but we believe the community
will benefit most from a new organization, if mostly new by name. We have

Freedom for Albert Woodfox of the Angola 3, After 40 Years in Solitary Confinement? |
|
by Katti Gray, The Root (reprinted by Angola 3 News), |
 After four decades of solitary confinement in the nation's most populated maximum-security prison -- and one of its most historically brutal -- a member of the internationally known "Angola 3" has reasonable cause to expect that he will soon be released, his attorneys and supporters say.
