Black August Movie Screening in cozy book store During the month of August, we raise awareness of conditions inside of prisons, we elevate ourselves on the history of Black & African resistance in the U.S & through the Diaspora. The movie covers the last 14 months of George Jackson's life as well as the conditions in California's prison industrial complex. George Jackson would spend 11 years incarcerated (7 of which were in solitary confinement) for a $70 gas station robbery crime in 1960. He was 18 years of age when the sentence of one year-to-life was handed down to him.
