Marius Mason is an anarchist, environmental and animal rights activist currently serving nearly 22 years in federal prison for acts of property damage carried out in defense of the planet. After being threatened with a life sentence in 2009 for these acts of sabotage, he plead guilty to arson charges at a Michigan State University lab researching genetically modified organisms for Monsanto. 12 other acts of property damage were included in his plea deal. No one was physically harmed in these actions. At sentencing the judge applied a so-called “terrorism enhancement,” adding almost two years to an already extreme sentence requested by the prosecution. This is the harshest punishment of anyone convicted of environmental sabotage to date.
Marius is a multi talented artists and writes poetry as well as paintings. You can check his art here: https://supportmariusmason.org/art/
You should write a letter to Marius, tell him about your day, or about a walk in the woods, or whatever else. Those letters are small cracks in the prison walls that bash through repression and allow prisoners like Marius to feel the outside world.
