Nyki Kish is an anarchist prisoner and co-founder of Bound For Glory magazine, as well as Books To Bars. Nyki is also a published poet, writer, and musician.
Nyki is currently serving a life sentence in Ontario for little more than looking like a street kid. In what the media dubbed "The Panhandler Killing" which was used as the excuse for the Toronto Safe Streets Act, we have a case where police "lost" the video tapes, there was a complete lack of evidence including multiple eye witnesses who did not identify Nyki, and a lack of DNA. This case shows how corrupt the legal system truly is. As per usual, in the media's version of this tragic story some very important details were left out, such as that the man they labeled a "business man" was a 250 pound "ex street fighter" who's business was running porn websites and marketing of porn. His best friend who was with him that night admitted that he had made explicit sexualised comments towards Nyki's friends including telling them to suck dick for money.
Nyki's mom Christine Bivens (Who is not an anarchist but an excellent advocate for her daughter none the less) recently did an interview detailing her case, to watch the interview click here
