“I went to court after being tested... came back and had to go into quarantine. I was placed in a cell with another female who had never been tested….”

“Faye Brown- from the neglect "terror" I feel so sad. The c/o do not care about us and their boss do not care about them.”

“My sister passed away last month and I couldn't go to the funeral. I have never been to any of my family's or friend's funerals.”

“It's been very difficult. The little bit of freedom I had is taken away. I can't see my family, it's horrible. I miss my son so much!”

“At the other prison, I was tested three times for covid and 4 times for flu. I was not allowed to shower for 10 days.”

“I have only 37 days before my 90 days parole violation is up and I’m being held here where people are actually losing their lives.”

The Decarcerate Now NC Campaign highlights the prison solidarity project, which amplifies the voices of incarcerated people and uplifts their stories to provide awareness about prison conditions, specifically during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Vigil’s first public event is this weekend.
