Nia Sykes Responds to the Chronicle
I did not receive a response from the California Coalition of Women Prisoners, but a reader was kind enough to let me know that Ms. Sykes had written a letter (scroll down to "I do not advocate violence") to the San Francisco Chronicle. She says the quote was taken out of context and that she does not advocate violence. She goes on to say that she was praising the peaceful protest and that when things got violent, she moved to another block.

If this is the case, the Chronicle should be ashamed.
