From the organizers:
"Join us as we kick off our ableism focused freeschool with a special talk with Yusuf Faqiri. Yusuf, his family and his community are seeking justice for Soleiman Faqiri, who was killed by guards on December 15, 2016 while in custody at an Ontario correctional facility in Lindsay. Soleiman lived with schizophrenia and was awaiting a bed in treatment at the time of his brutal death. The Faqiri family are looking for answers and deserve to know how this could have happened to their beloved son and brother. Please join us in seeking justice for Soleiman. www.facebook.com/justiceforsoli/"
