The Prisoner’s Herbal book is written for people in prison who want to learn about the medicinal properties of plants commonly found in prison courtyards. It contains ten detailed plant profiles, as well as instructions on how to prepare plant medicines in prison and more.
Two compañerxs translated the book into Spanish in 2021 – Jorge and Heather Anne. They created two editions – one for people imprisoned in the Spanish state, and the other for people incarcerated across Abya Yala, the name in Guna for the so-called Americas, used by millions of Indigenous peoples across these continents.
Both copies have been distributed to people in prisons across Abya Yala, the so-called United States and the Spanish State.
