Resistbot Petition: #FREEJOSHWILLIAMS

An open letter to the U.S. Congress

#FREEJOSHWILLIAMS

2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The president-elect is acknowledging, finally, that systemic racism is indeed a thing. We saw one half of the equation when white supremist thugs invaded the White House and the police took selfies with them. The other half is Josh Williams, sentenced in 2014 to eight years in prison for stealing snacks and setting a trash can on fire. 18 years-old, first offense. A presidential pardon would send a clear message that protesting while black is no longer a punishable crime. #FREEJOSHWILLIAMS
