My name is Champagne. I was sentenced to 100 years in prison for being, in the words of the government, the embodiment of Antifa. I spoke the truth clearly and refused to be interrupted in court. I am not afraid, even as violence rises all around me, inside and outside these walls, I am not afraid because the struggle remains the same. The great disasters and failures that we face are the same. Our duty, as Assata told us, is the same. I know I am just one in the sea of us. We are strong. We are smart and capable. We are committed. We will think and love and win. We will care for and protect each other. We will speak and listen, connect and grow. The better world we struggle for is our duty and our birthright. I will continue to fight for it. We will win it together. Thank you, each and every one of you. I am so grateful for all of the love and support, hard work and determination. Thank you for supporting us, supporting this, supporting yourself. I will see you when we are all free.
