Dear organization name & supporters,
Join us and the Free Ashley Diamond campaign THIS WEEK - April 19-23 - for a Week of Action to bring Ashley Diamond home and to #FreeThemAll. Ashley continues to fight but she needs your support! Ashley’s demands are: to be treated fairly, to be moved to a women’s prison, and to be free.

[insert one of the images below here]

Ashley Diamond is a Black trans woman and prisoners' rights activist. She made national headlines in 2016 for her landmark victory against the Georgia Department of Corrections. Ashley has since been re-imprisoned because of a technical parole violation and is currently incarcerated at Coastal State Prison in Garden City, Georgia. Her situation is urgent-she has faced repeated sexual assault and denial of healthcare, which has only been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. You can read more about Ashley’s story and find out how to get involved at freeashleydiamond.com.

Alongside the Free Ashley Diamond campaign - an abolitionist, survivor led team, we invite you to join us in calling for Ashley’s release. This will be an exciting and powerful week that brings together organizations and artists from across the country to #FreeAshleyNow.

 Dear organization name & supporters,
This week, we've partnered with the #FreeAshleyNow campaign to bring Ashley Diamond, a Black trans woman currently imprisoned in Georgia, home and to #FreeThemAll. Ashley is an incredible artist and activist who has been fighting since 2015, and needs your support! Her demands are: to be treated fairly, to be moved to a women’s prison, and to be free.

Today, we're asking supporters to take action through a phone and email zap to Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and other key targets using this toolkit. After you've made the calls and sent those emails, amplify the beautiful artwork made by featured artist Sara Head from bhcreativestudio.com. Use the social media toolkit linked here to post a selfie with a #FreeAshleyNow sign, Sara's art (below), and a graphic about the week of action. Posting pictures of yourselves helps to trick the algorithm, so if you can, please do! Don't forget to tag @freeashley_now!
