Firestorm Books<p>In 2024 our co-op collaborated on nine incredible events with Eric King and Josh Davidson, co-editors of "Rattling the Cages: Oral Histories of North American Political Prisoners!" Next Saturday, Eric and Josh will be joined by Rattling the Cages co-creator Sara Falconer to share how they started this oral history project, the importance of inside-outside collaboration, and how replicating these oral histories is something you can do, too. Sarah and Josh will additionally talk about a quarter century of creating the Certain Days calendar, building relationships with political prisoners, and why our support matters!</p><p>Learn more about this event and sign up for free at <a href="https://firestorm.coop/events/3304-rattling-the-cages-how-we-did-it-and-how-you-can-too.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">firestorm.coop/events/3304-rat</span><span class="invisible">tling-the-cages-how-we-did-it-and-how-you-can-too.html</span></a>.
