RDTW 2026

(JAI:  The comrades of the ABCF were instrumental in assisting the RAC-LA
when it began its Free Food Program in 2007 and for years after.  They have
also raised funds for those behind bars.  Truly a grand organization.)

Join us on Saturday, September 19th, 10am (PST) 1pm (EST) for the annual
Running Down The Walls 5K, as we take to the streets… not in anger, even
though anger is justified, but we take to the streets in motion, a
synchronized act of solidarity that will reverberate from Los Angeles to
New York and every street, path, and trail in between. We are running for
those who have been locked away for daring to fight for a better world.

Whether you're a seasoned organizer or someone who's never laced up for a
cause, you belong here at the Anarchist Black Cross Federation’s (ABCF)
annual Running Down The Walls 5K Run/Walk/Jog/Roll. This benefit for North
American Political Prisoners is not about speed (although there will be
prizes for the folks who cross the line first), but more importantly it’s
about showing up. Our strength is in numbers, and our numbers will be
telling the political prisoners and prisoners of war held in cages across
this country that: “You are not forgotten.”

Every dollar raised goes directly to the Warchest Program, a lifeline since
1994 that provides monthly stipends to imprisoned comrades who receive
little to no support.

*RUN WITH US:*
Gathering sponsors to turn every mile into money for our comrades.
*SPONSOR A RUNNER:*
Ensuring every stride translates into tangible material aid.
*ORGANIZE A SOLIDARITY RUN IN YOUR CITY:*
Because this movement thrives when it’s rooted in every community.

*Where* will there be runs: Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, Lowell,
and more to come.
*When:* Saturday, September 19th at 10:00am (PST) 1:00pm (EST)
*Why*: Because solidarity is not a sentiment it is a weapon, and we intend
to use it to strengthen our comrades. Come run, walk, jog, or roll, bring
your friends, and your family. The walls they built cannot withstand the
weight of our collective footsteps.
