What were the reasons given for the prisoner revolt at Attica prison? Who came to the prisoners'

defense?

Eliot James Barkley

Explanation:

The Attica prison was located in the United States of America. And a serious riot was carried out by the inmates in the prison in many years back.

The reasons that led to the riot were because of severe overcrowding, virtual starvation, and an often complete absence of medical care as stated and experienced by the inmate.

And an instruction was given out by then the president to curb and stop the rioters.

It should be understood that the execution of the order and the riot led to the death of close a hundred of inmates and prison officials.

Elliot James Barkley was the person that came to the prisoners rescue. He served ad their spokesman.

Demands for better living conditions and political rights

No one from outside.

Explanation:

The Attica Liberation Faction Manifesto of Demands includes 27 demands, such as better medical treatment, visitation rights and an end to physical brutality.

The Attica riot (1971) was inspired by The Prisoners Rights Movement that used the Civil Rights and Black Power movements to demand their constitutional rights.

After having unsuccesfully negotiated with Commissionar R. G. Oswald and  a team of observers the prisoners requested the presence of Louis Farrakhan, national representative of the Nation of Islam, but he declined.
