Big Ol’ Banner, a How To

*WISCONSIN PRISONS ARE A CRISIS’ banner over I-43 during evening rush hour in Milwaukee.*

As a part of the Shut ‘Em Down 2021 mobilization, some ABOLISHmke collaborators put together an art build to make a banner big enough to blow some minds.

It’s easy to read and the message is clear: there is no fixing the humanitarian crisis that is wisconsin prisons unless we abolish wisconsin prisons, because they are a crisis, they are not in crisis.
