Ras Uhuru (legal name Norman Green) has served 22 years non-stop in solitary confinement in the Wisconsin prison system, without any record of violent behavior. He is on hunger strike now, seeking to fight this longterm solitary confinement. Please take a moment to call Waupun Correctional Institution (920) 324-5571 ask to speak with the security director.
Sample script: “I’m calling to support Ras Uhuru, legal name Norman Green. It is inhumane that you have kept him isolated for so long. I know he’s on hunger strike now, you should not punish or force-feed him. Instead let him into general population. When will you let him out of solitary confinement?”
