Support BLM's fight against the INCARCERATION NATION
BLM started this fight,
lets unite to finish it!
The abominable rates of
incarceration, particularly
among the poor and minorities
must stop.
INCARCERATION NATION began
as a chest thumping, "tough on crime",
political, feel good policy.
The results have not been a healthier
society, nor a more peaceful society...
actually, its been the opposite.
The Legacy of INCARCERATION NATION
is a prison industrial complex (PIC)
which benefits only those employed by
the PIC and the investors in FOR PROFIT prisons.
INCARCERATION NATION has ruined millions
of lives, destroyed families, and sabotaged
the futures of vast swaths of citizens,
for no other reason than poitical grandstanding
and investor profits.
Even and early proponent of
INCARCERATION NATION,
Bill Clinton, has publically come out
against his legislation which enabled
mass incarceration
"I signed a bill that made the problem worse," Clinton told an audience at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People's annual meeting in Philadelphia. "And I want to admit it."
The omnibus crime bill that Clinton signed included the federal "three strikes" provision, mandating life sentences for criminals convicted of a violent felony after two or more prior convictions, including drug crimes.

INCARCERATION NATION?

He set the stage for Wall st,
Clinton allies and donors,
to reap billions of dollars through
For Profit Incarceration
All the while he played on the fears
of race based bigotry.
It's unconscionable
