Help KP Get Free!
Ok, time to step up and help out K-Pook directly. He’s filing paperwork in hopes of a sentence reduction and needs letters from friends and acquaintances alike. This is what you can do:
1) Write a letter (short, medium, or long) that explains what Pook meant to you and how he positively impacted your life. Feel free to express you feelings regarding the absurdity of his 15 year sentence as well.
2) Please include your name and address (at least the city, we understand if you don’t want to include your full street address).
3) Send via email to Team K-Pook by Feb 21st.
Simple ain’t it.
Again, the deadline for submissions is Feb 21st so we’re asking you to email Team K-Pook instead of snail mail due to the time constraint. We’ll properly address the letter to Judge Lew and get them to Keldren…we just need you to email us in time.
In addition to your prayers every letter helps. We thank you for continuing to support K-Pook and the Los Angeles music, fashion, and nightlife scene he loved and helped create.

Article from FAMM
An oldie but good article from the FAMM website titled: Chipping Away at the Number of Imprisoned Black Males
As a longtime crack addict from Lexington, Ky., George Moorman was one more black male being churned through America’s criminal justice system until one day in 1997, when he came before a drug court judge for stealing a camcorder.
“He decided to put me in the drug court program – he told me I was too intelligent to go to the penitentiary,” recalls Moorman, who, at 54, just earned a doctorate in educational psychology from the University of Kentucky. “I’d already…

Haiti Needs Help
Click one of the images below and donate to assist people in Haiti:
Yéle Haiti is a grassroots movement that builds global awareness for Haiti while helping to transform the country through programs in education, sports, the arts and environment. Yéle’s community service programs include food distribution and mobilizing emergency relief. Grammy-Award winning musician, humanitarian and Goodwill Ambassador to Haiti Wyclef Jean founded Yéle Haiti in 2005.
Through his work with his Foundation, Samuel Dalembert has taken great interest in helping his economically devastated homeland of Haiti. Through partnerships with UNICEF, the Red Cross, and Feed the Children, the Foundation has been able to support numerous relief efforts, including bringing clean water and food supplies to Haiti after hurricane devastation.
To overcome the massive humanitarian obstacles that still face some 3 million people affected by the quake, UNICEF today issued a call for almost $120 million to support its relief operations in Haiti. The funding is part of a wider UN appeal for $562 million.

Happy Thxsgiving & News from FAMM
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!! Please keep reading for the latest info from FAMM:
Sometimes, reform really can happen almost overnight. On the very same day last week – and just in time for Thanksgiving – both Massachusetts and Rhode Island gave us something to be thankful for.
In Massachusetts, the State Senate passed a criminal justice bill that FAMM fought hard for! The bill allows drug offenders sentenced to mandatory minimums in Massachusetts state courts to apply for parole. It still needs to be approved by the House, but if it is signed into law, some Massachusetts prisoners may be returning home years earlier than expected.
Just fifty miles away on the same day, Rhode Island eliminated all of its mandatory minimums for drug sentences! FAMM provided some support to the wonderful groups working on the ground there, so we get to share in this sweet victory, too.
These are exciting victories for FAMM, our dedicated members, and the thousands of prisoners looking to us for relief from harsh sentences. We’ve still got a lot of work ahead of us – in Massachusetts and other states, as well as in our nation’s capital.
Stay tuned as we’ll continue fighting to bring this legislation to California and the federal system!
