About the ABC
The
Anarchist Black Cross was originated in Tsarist Russia to organize aid
for political prisoners. In the late 1960s the organization resurfaced
in Britain, where it first worked to aid prisoners of the Spanish
resistance fighting the dictator Franco's police. Now it has expanded
and groups are found in many countries around the world. We support
anarchist and other class struggle prisoners, fund-raise on behalf of
prisoners in need of funds for legal cases or otherwise, and organize
demonstrations of solidarity with imprisoned anarchists and other
prisoners.
