Tavaria Merritt

    Tavaria is the founder of Be the Change, the first openly LGBTQ+ community in the Tennessee prison system. As a teenager she was sentenced to 225 years in prison, which has since been reduced to 50 years. She maintains her innocence, and is working on securing an attorney to reopen her case. You can support the #FreeVaria campaign online and the BTC community through JPay, and send letters by USPS.
