Tonight at OccupyOakland GA via OakFoSho, we learned that Oaklander Khali who was arrested December 16, 2011 during a police action at Oscar Grant Plaza, is still being held without medication in solitary confinement.
OccupyOaklanders have not been able to see him until today. Anti-repression committee representatives reported the bruising around his eyes has gone down but his eyes are still bloodshot. After repeated calls to Santa Rita jail, members were able to finally receive assurances that Khali will be able to receive medication. They were able to tell him how much support he has in the Occupy Oakland community. He send his love back to Oakland.

FREE KHALI!!! : An urgent message from OO’s Anti-Repression Committee
December 23, 2011 in Anti-Repression Committee, Front PageFREE KHALI !!!
Occupy Oakland is facing increasingly brutal targeting by Oakland Police Department and City Hall. This has ranged from issuing citations for having “structures” like umbrellas in Oscar Grant Plaza or parking tickets to community members dropping off food and supplies, to daily forms of police harassment and raids on Occupy Oakland.
Last Friday December 16, [2011] OPD conducted a raid targeting Occupy Oakland during which they confiscated all of the personal belongings of the Occupiers maintaining our vigil at Oscar Grant Plaza. In the course of forcibly taking the blankets, food and belongings of our community, police arrested three members of Occupy Oakland on baseless minor misdemeanor charges. Although Occupy Oakland was able to raise money to bail out two of these individuals that evening, due to a violation hold we were unable to bail out Khali who was then forced to remain in Santa Rita Jail for four nights until his arraignment on the following Tuesday.

The information to send cards or notes of encouragement is in the screenshot.
Please do not send:
- photos
- food
- pornography
- propaganda
It seems like we should not have to say those last two but the Representative of the Anti-Repression committee specified no pornography.
Please consider sending Khali a note of encouragement.
MT 25:34 Then the king will say to those at his right hand, 'Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.' 37 Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? 38 And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? 39 And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?' 40 And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.'
