Help Free Shaka A. Shakur
Shaka Shakur is a New Afrikan freedom fighter and grandfather who has spent more than two decades behind bars. The Free Shaka Shakur Freedom Campaign is asking all supporters to flood Lake County (IN) Prosecutor Bernard Carter with respectful letters urging him to modify Shaka’s sentence and release him. Let’s add UPROAR’s voice to the chorus!
Why now? Shaka has already served the time Indiana’s own statutes consider complete. The original victim does not oppose release, and Shaka’s decades of peer-led education prove his commitment to community healing. Prosecutor Bernard Carter has the power—right now—to file a sentence-modification motion. Our collective pressure can tip that scale.
