The Angola 3 case is the search to, “find justice for three innocent and wrongfully convicted men locked down at Angola, the Louisiana State Penitentiary, for nearly three decades…All three men — Herman Wallace, Albert Woodfox and Robert King Wilkerson – fought for prison reform in the early 1970s. As a result, they were targeted by prison officials who eventually framed them for crimes they did not commit. Each has remained principled and politically active in spite of their brutal, long-term confinement….We have had one victory: Robert King Wilkerson was released on February 8, 2001. Today, Wilkerson — along with this coalition — is dedicated to finding justice for Woodfox and Wallace, and exposing the prison industrial complex for what it is. Meanwhile, Herman Wallace and Albert Woodfox remain locked down in 6’ by 9’ cells, for 23 hours a day, at Angola.”
