by the Editors
Political prisoner and former Black Panther Russell Maroon Shoatz #AF3855 was informed that he had prostate cancer on December 9, 2014. Prison medical staff has not provided any treatment to date. Cancer does not wait for the prison bureaucracy. Maroon’s health, his life, and his rights are being violated every moment he is denied necessary cancer treatment.
Call SCI Graterford and PADOC Secretary Wetzel today and demand that Maroon be provided immediate, necessary medical care for his prostate cancer.
Call:
SCI Graterford Superintendent Michael Wenerowicz: 610-489-4151
SCI Graterford Chief Health Care Administrator Joseph Korszniak: 610-489-4151
PADOC Secretary John Wetzel: 717-728-4109
Please be firm and respectful when talking to prison staff.
Talking Points:
Russell Shoatz was informed that he has prostate cancer on December 9, 2014. He has not received any treatment to date.
The oncologist told him in December that the cancer was “aggressive” and that treatment should begin in January.
A urologist told him in January that he was going to receive radiation treatment.
There is no medical reason for a two-month delay prior to receiving necessary cancer treatment. In fact, delaying treatment only increases the likelihood of further irreparable damage to a patient's health and frankly endangers his life. Russell Shoatz needs immediate health care, and continued refusal to provide this is illegal, and puts his life at risk.

Black History Month strengthened Black German claims of kinship with their nation and the larger diaspora.
The Black political class is wedded to the centrist Democrats for its “fatback and biscuits” patronage.
Judges, prosecutors and sheriffs in many states sent people home instead of to jail last year, but new data suggests the change is not lasting.
What appears to be a dispute about academics is really a political tactic in the ongoing campaign to privatize public schools.
The phony Left dabbles in R2P interventions and claims the world is plagued by a plethora of imperialisms, thus letting the superpower and its allies off the hook.
