Torture conditions in U.S. prisons
20-10-2008 22:12
Gabriel Gonzalez was 21 years old when he was sentenced to die for the murder of a pawnshop owner, a crime that he insists he did not commit. Along with Kenneth Foster Jr. and Rob Will, Gabriel co-founded the Death Row Inner-communalist Vanguard Engagement (DRIVE) Movement, which engages in nonviolent, direct action protest to fight for better conditions on death row and in opposition to capital punishment.Here, Gabriel describes the effects of isolation and segregation on prisoners.
THE U.S. criminal justice system is remarkably ineffective, absurdly expensive, grossly inhumane and riddled with racism. The slaughter of youth of color characterizes many big city police departments. Sentencing practices have led to the imprisonment of over 2 million people in state and federal facilities, with another 3.5 million under other forms of social control.

If "That One" Wins
16-10-2008 18:56
November 4, when a society drenched in racism tries to figure out which of
its "selves" will pull the lever. Lots of whites seem to be profoundly
confused. "A recent poll indicated that many white people, including some
who claim to support Obama, continue to hold very negative opinions about
black people, often viewing them as `violent,' and `complaining.'" But Obama
solves the problem, since his "refusal to directly address the needs of
black people is also appealing to white people." Other whites are more
straightforward. If your car sports an Obama sticker, they won't let you
park.
