From the Jobs Not Jails Facebook Event:
Let us ALL bring together 10,000 people from across Massachusetts to say NO to incarcerating our family, friends, neighbors, and loved ones. Let us say YES to good jobs that are meaningful and pay living wages.
We will listen to speakers. We will chant with one another. We will be motivated to act with loud voices.
This event is being organized by a statewide coalition. JOIN US!
