The US has the largest prison population in the world -- in actual number of inmates and as a percentage of the total population. 1 out of every 100 Americans is behind bars. 1 and 3 black males will go to prison in their lifetime. 40% of the prison population is black. 40% of the federal prison population is hispanic. The US is home to nearly a quarter of the worlds prisoners despite accounting for just 5 percent of the overall global population. This is wrong and everyone knows it. We need to fix this! #Unacceptable #USPrisons #USPrisonIndustrialComplex #FBOP #BOP
