About me:
Click here to get your own StreetWise Myspace Skin! My name is Russell 'Maroon' Shoats and I am a New Afrikan Political Prisoner of War, who at this moment is serving a prison sentence at the Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, state institution. I was originally locked up in January of 1972, and have since spent over 25 years in 15 different state, county, and federal prisons, jails and a maximum security prison/mental institution. Over 20 of these years were spent in the "holes" of these various facilities locked down for 23 or more hours daily. RUSSELL MAROON SHOATS New Afrikan Prisoner of War I was born in Philadelphia, PA, in August of 1943, one of 12 children in the household of Gladys and Russell Shoats. I attended school there until the age of 15, after which I was in and out of reforms schools and youth institutions until the age of eighteen , mainly due to gang-related activities. These gang activities, though not drug-related as the bulk of similar actitites are today, still had the same root causes: a lack of comprehensive youth-oriented programs in the schools and neighborhoolds, coupled with high unemployment and police repression in the New African communities. I married twice and became the father of 7 children between the years of 1964 and 1970. During the early to middle 1960's, I became increasingly politically aware and active in the New Afrikan liberation movement. I was a founding member of the Black Unity Council, a Philadelphia Grouping that eventually merged with the Philadelphia chapter of the Black Panther Party in 1969. In August of 1970, at the height of the nationwide repression of the New Afrikan liberation movement, I became a fugitive after a Philadelphia policeman was killed and another was wounded in a retaliatory attack on a Philadelphia police station. In response to the heightened repression of the New Afrikan liberation movement in general, and the unjustified killing of a New Afrikan youth by the repressive poloice in the local community, from August 1970 until January 1972, the date of my capture and arrest; I was active on the armed front of the New Afrikan Liberation Army. All of my actions and activities during this period were in direct response to, and in direct support of the movement's activities. I was tried and convicted for the attack on the police station and sentenced to life-plus imprisonment. In September 1977, myself and three other New African Political Prisoners of War liberated ourselves from state prison at Huntington, PA. Two of these brothers were recaptured and a third was killed during the escape. However, I remained at large for a month, in the teeth of a massive "slave-style" hunt by local, state, and federal forces, who had also recruited large numbers of the local rural while populace to help in their search. From my capture in October 1977, until November 1989, I was kept in various "holes" in numerous state, county, and federal prisions, and maximum-security prison/mental institutions. During this period I was locked down daily at the Pennsylvania state prisons at Huntingdon, Pittsburgh, Camp Hill, Dallas, Rockview, and Grateford, as well as the Allegheny, Wayne, Washington, Lackawanna, Montgomery, and Philadelphia county prisons and the U.S. penitentiaries at N. Lewisburgh, PA and Leavenworth, Kansas. In 1979, I was forcibly transferred to the maximum security-security prison/mental institution at Waymart, Pennsylvania, known as "Fairview." During my over one-year stay at this facility I was forcibly drugged, and on one occasion was hospitalized from a hospital-induced overdose of these drugs. In March 1980, myself and another New Afrikan Political Prisoner of War were able to liberate ourselves from this institution after a New Afrikan activist smuggled a revolver and a sub-machine gun into the institution for our use. Three days later all three of us were captured after a gun battle with local, state, and county police and FBI agents. In the wake of the historic Camp Hill rebellion, during October 1989, at the Pennsylvania state prison at Camp Hill, I was transferred from the state in- prison at Dallas, to the U.S. Penitentiary at Lewisburg, and then to the U.S. Penitentiary at Leavenworth, Although I had no part in this rebellion (having been at Dallas at the time,) I was nevertheless singled out by the prison administration to be transferred over 1,000 miles from family, supporters, and friends with a view towards ultimately having me confined at the notorious federal prioson at Marion, Illinois. While being kept on 23-hours a day lockdown at Leavenworth, during November 1989, my relatives and supporters mounted a campaign to reveal the lies and falsified records the Pennsylvania prison administration had used to implicate me in the Camp Hill rebellion, which was used as a basis for my transfer to Leavenworth and there to be evaluated for placement at Marion, Illinois. These efforts were successful and I was finally released to the general prison population in December 1989 until June 1991, I'm now being held on 23-hour lockdown at Dallas and Waynesburg state institution, where I remain a committed New Afrikan freedom fighter who will not rest until the New Afrikan peoples are free from oppression, an a free and self-governing nation. Russell Maroon Shoatz was a dedicated community activist and founding member of the Philadelphia based Black Unity Counsel, which merged with the Black Panther Party in 1969. In 1970, Maroon, along with five comrades, was accused of an attack on a Philadelphia police station which resulted in the death of a cop. This attack was carried out in response to the war being waged against the Black Community. For eighteen months Maroon was active underground as a soldier in the Black Liberation Army until his arrest in 1972. This freedom fighter escaped from prison twice, and in 1977 he remained at large for twenty-seven days before being re-captured. On March 2, 1980 he liberated himself once more, but was captured three days later. Maroon has been in prison, serving multiple life sentences, since that time. Currently he is locked down twenty-three hours a day under conditions of sensory deprivation at the control unit in SCI-Greene in Pennsylvania, with no prospect of release.

YOU CANT STOP A MOTHAFUCKA LIKE ME
BROTHAS AND SISTAS,
I aint did this in a minute but its needed. First and foremost, I love yall. Freedom is so close. So close that these crackas gotta use my people against me. Lil brothas out the hood are catching cases and are afraid to do the time, so they switch sides. You got wanna be gangstas that are telling police everybody business. Unfortunate sistas that got caught up, that will tell on you because the joes(police) all down their throat. Officer Pugh, we know what's crackin baby! I aint boo boo the fool, Im mothafuckin BuKKKin of the Black Panther Party! You recognize. I aint here to intimidate people, so why are yall tryin to intimidate me? The pigs are using the kids. They sellin drugs in our community because they allow informants(snitches) to get away with murder as long as its a nigga they dont like, such as myself. My time will come. They used kids to get Huey. They using kids to provoke and have cause to kill me. This is how desperate my own people have become. They dont see fucking up another man's life for the same people that fucked up their life as wrong. These pigs are out to get me. For them it's routine. I aint the first and if you leave it up to them, I damn sure wont be the last. So Im putting yall on blast. These pigs are controlling our streets by having the wanna be thugs in their pockets working both ways. Just like the piglets(child of a pig) get away with anything because their a child of a pig. These informants are given probation violation breaks and shit. That's what it is yall. We are advanced in 2009. Too many police on both sides too. They dont all like being pigs. They assist us the same way yall assist your hand picked informants. Letting them get away with shit, but arrest them when they dont comply. So to all those brothas and sistas, especially the ones on me, I still love you.

ONE LIFE

all I need is one life
first to last breath
to show the world the truth
how many days do I have left

my eyes stay open
many ears stay closed
living in fear they know
in a world so cold

but the globe is gettin warmer
I am not a warner
you know whats gonna happen
death's around the corner

shootin dice with your life
that duece five is nice
unless your point's six
leave your soul sick

sometimes life is so quick
and we be unprepared
insurance policy never cleared
the moment you always feared

trapped in those lights like deer
as we pour out some beer
I still cant let go
my cuzzin died last year

where do we go from here
a place we never seen
good or bad I pray to GOD
its only just a dream

one life is all I need
would never want to die again
Father do not forsake me
and send me back to try again

HI Fam... With the Utmost Respect I a copying the message I received today from a WatchGroup; Love you all! Diamond

Long time New Afrikan Freedom Fighter and Political Prisoner, Russell Maroon Shoatz has glaucoma and cataracts in both eye and needs surgery to correct the cataracts.
Dr Jin (who is the doctor at SCI-Greene) said he would submit the paper work for the surgery, but hasn't.
Maroon's daughter, Theresa Shoatz, called SCI Greene and spoke to Dan Davis, who said said he was emailing Dr. Jin as they spoke,
to speed up the paper work for Maroon's surgery. Dr. Jin responded to
the email by sending Maroon back to the eye doctor who diagnosed the
cataracts. Once again the eye doctor told Maroon, you don't need to see me
you need to see the surgeon. The eye doctor told Maroon he would
tell Dr. Jin to once again submit the paperwork for the surgery.

Maroon is also in need of a typewriter, due to the side effects of taking Cipro
for more than a year. Maroon began taking Cipro in 2005 for his prostate
infection. The FDA has warned the public about the terrible side
effects of Cipro, which often causes damage to a person's tendons. Maroon is experiencing
terrible pain in the chest, arm, and hands. The tendons surrounding
the muscle in those areas are inflamed. Maroon said the pain is constant and describes the pain similar to a broken bone. There is swelling and
no ice is available. Maroon complained that writing is difficult, therefore we
asked the warden for a typewriter. Theresa spoke to the warden, who told her to just order it, as long as Maroon has enough money in his account, which he does. The warden called Theresa back later and told her that's it's unfair to the other prisoners on Administrative Custody (AC)status if Maroon is able to purchase a typewriter since AC status prisoners are not allowed to own typewriters. Maroon is housed in the capital area (death row). Death row prisoners are
allowed typewrit
