On New Year’s Eve, a few dozen revellers gathered to ring in the New Year in solidarity with those imprisoned at the Travis County Jail. This iteration of the annual NYE demo, which aims to show support to the people inside and antagonism to the jailers, has been running for 10 years. This year, the crowd marched with drums, puts, pans, and fireworks, all set to sick techno beats from a mobile speaker system. At the end of the demo, to celebrate the 10 years, a special gift was left for the jailers: bags of ballpit balls covered in slime.

Solidarity as well to those who staged a disruption at the NYE fireworks show at Auditorium Shores in solidarity with the struggle in Palestine.

Fire to the Prisons, Freedom to the Prisoners!

Long Live the Intifada!

Two fireworks launching from in front of the jail. One is orange, the other is yellow, both launching from canisters on the ground.

Smoke from smoke bombs obscuring the front of the jail, a large concrete building in the background of the photo. The smoke is white, blue, and pink colored.
