Solitary Confinement Explored by @DanbHarris of ABC News – Recently ABC News aired a segment regarding solitary confinement explored by investigative reporter Dan Harris. Harris spent 48 hours in a cell where inmates would be placed for days and even months with only themselves and basic needs for living. Several organizations as well as prison reform activists consider these conditions to be unconstitutional as well inhumane. Check out the video detailing his environment and the conditions and situations that he experienced during his limited time in the solitary cell.
Life in Prison – I am an inmate writer of poetry and reader of good books and am wondering why I received 188 months for 19.2 grams of crack. Thank goodness they have changed the law and maybe I will be getting out but since it is not retroactive then maybe not.
As co-hosts Jenny and Rufus Triplett make their way back onto the airwaves after a long hiatus, they are cleaning out the archived interviews. One interview in particular, that was conducted over a year ago with Rashad Robinson, Executive Director of the activist organization Color of Change, is timely.
