1809 W University Avenue
This month on October 29th Naeem Trotter from the P2 will be having a Post-Convict Relief Hearing for a possible resentencing on the grounds of ineffective counsel representation, and he needs all the support we can give him.
We are entering into the 42nd year Naeem has been captured by the settler-colonial state in Indiana for standing up and saving the life of his fellow inmate, Lincoln Love, and exerting his right to self-defense against the white supremist, state sanctioned violence those incarcerated experience’s. As a grandfather and an elder with severe medical conditions, now more than ever it is time for him to come home.
On October 29th at 1:30PM at Madison County Government Center, Naeem will be presenting evidence to the state in defense of his case and will be representing himself as counsel. Join us as we stand in solidarity with Naeem and demonstrate our strength in numbers to show the state there are eyes on them.
There will be a caravan to his hearing for maximum attendance. Please scan the QR code in the above post to fill out the Google Form for tracking. If you are in need of a ride, please arrive at the Muncie Liberation Studio 1809 W University Ave at 12:00PM. If you have extra space and are able to drive people to the hearing, please arrive at the same time.
This is not the time for protest. If you attend the hearing, please be respectful and maintain a level of composure. We do not want this to backfire on Naeem’s possibility of freedom.

- VADS - William Camargo: Where Images Live: Photography, Place, and the Power of Presence 6pm @ Fine Arts Building, Ball State University AR 217 2021 W. Riverside Avenue
Photography isn't just something we frame; it can reshape how we experience space, history, and memory. Through public interventions/performances that live in photos, sculptural interventions, and photographic art history, William Camargo uses his photographic practices to mark absence, reclaim narratives, and honor place-based histories. He does this by introducing those who influence his works, just as Laura Aguilar, James Luna, Ken Gonzales-Day and beyond. He also introduces the complexity of the history of photography and connects it back to his practice as a counter-narrative strategy. Camargo is Lecturer in Photography at Pasadena City College and Cal State Fullerton.
This event is free and open to the public.
