Hello!

This last Friday afternoon we were not allowed to go to the hobbie-room or to do Umschluss (going to another cell) and I was in my cell when suddenly heard a bunch of noise from outside, opened my window and heard it louder.

It was you! Tried to answer back, then I heard you going, then coming again, and as I told you that day we were all in the cells, so not just me but many people heard you, and the day after some people were talking about it in the garden, and also some asked when would be another day to leave the window open and hear it.

And as I’ve been many times on the other side of the wall, and many times have wondered if people inside would hear it or not, just wanted to tell you that:

Yes! We hear it! And it’s empowering.

Thanks for coming!

Love and rage,
Foot
