Peter Collins was a writer, artist, musician, cartoonist, activist, fi lmmaker, organizer and prisoners’ rights advocate. Peter was a social critic who off ered thoughtful insights about the structures of violence inherent in the world around us. His tireless commitment to social justice from inside prison made him a target of harassment by Correctional Service Canada (CSC), which ultimately prevented his release. Peter passed away on 13 August 2015 of bladder cancer after having served 32 years on a Life-25 prison sentence. He was 10 years past his parole eligibility dates. A collection of his comics, art and written work, entitled Free Inside: The Life and Art of Peter Collins, will soon be published by Ad Astra Comix (see www.adastracomix.com).
