Letter Writing Event in Support of the Ulm 5 Political Prisoners

Come to hear from the mother of Zo Hailu, one of five activists in prison in Germany since September 2025 after taking non-violent direct action to protest against Israel's genocide of Palestinians. 

Hear about the 'show trial’ - ongoing since April 2026 and scheduled to continue until March 2027 - and about all five defendants - the others are Crow Tricks, Daniel Tatlow-Devally, Vi Kovarbasic and Leandra Rollo.
