The Stanley "Tookie" Williams Vigil at San Quentin, Monday, December 12, 2005

These photographs and videos were taken outside the gates of San Quentin Prison on the evening of December 12, 2005 during a vigil marking the execution of Stanley "Tookie" Williams, which happened shortly after midnight.

Before arriving at San Quentin, I had been under the naive impression that the crowd in front would be evenly split between anti-death penalty protesters and pro-death penalty protesters. I was sorely mistaken. I quickly learned that the crowd was 99% anti-death penalty. And a substantial proportion of them were avowed socialists, since several radical groups showed up en masse….

Full collection of photos & videos here - NOT WORK-FRIENDLY!

Way to document this circus! Did the Took Kooks know which side you were on when you were taking the pics? Or did you scam them into thinking you were one of them?

The International Socialist Organization (ISO) is committed to building an organization that participates in the struggles for justice and liberation today--and, ultimately, for a future socialist society.

The ISO has branches across the country whose members are involved in helping to build a number of struggles: the movement to stop war and occupation, fights against racism and anti-immigrant scapegoating, the struggle for women's rights like the right to choose abortion, opposing anti-gay bigotry, and standing up for workers' rights.

When people complain about the death penalty, they ignore the side benfits, like these demonstrations.

I also heard today that the prison where Tookie Jr is incarcerated was in lockdown because of a threat of reprisal from the Crips for killing their leader? I thought that this scum repented? If he did, why didn't he make a final statement asking for forgiveness and requesting that the violence be stopped with his death? Repentence, my foot. Put that in your pipe Mr Mike Farrel and smoke it!!!

Most all prisons routinely go to lock-down before, during and just after an execution, regardless of who is about to be executed.

It wasn't I who documented this circus. That honor goes to "Zombie.". "Zombie" is a Bay Area resident who attends these gatherings and invariably obtains photos and videos that demonstrate the unbelievable ignorance, intolerance, viciousness, and perversity of so-called "progressive" political-types.

Nobody is sure of "Zombie"'s real identity, or even his/her gender. S/he operates under very deep cover, due to the threat of retaliation by the "peace-loving" folks s/he shows doing things like beating up Christian evangelists.

Whatever his/her identity, "Zombie" is one brave individual.
