3 Strikes
In Massachusetts a “3 Strikes” Habitual Offender Bill was recently signed into law by Gov. Deval Patrick and took affect August 2, 2012. This is in spite of a concerted community / coalition effort spearheaded by the Blackstronian, EPOCA, NAACP, Prisoners Legal Services, FAMM, and many others to stop passage of a “3 Strikes” Bill in MA. We worked closely with Blackstonian to create a website www.stopthreestrikes.org as well as posters and flyers, info graphics, and the latest print edition of the Blackstonian dedicated to the 3 strikes issue. www.StopThreeStrikes.org 3 Strikes Blackstonian / Mass Movements Newspaper http://blackstonian.com/info/2012/02/blackstonian-3-strikes-edition-hits-the-streets-in-boston-and-throughout-ma Info Graphics http://blackstonian.com/info/2012/01/3-strikes-info-graphics/ With such a contested issue the challenge was to make information accessible to a general public which no next to nothing about a law that affects all of us.
