...because once you get to 2 million people locked up, there’s nobody that doesn’t have a family member or loved one or a friend that’s in prison. So all of a sudden you can’t be like me much anymore, and say, “I don’t know any criminals. I don’t know anybody who’s locked up.” That’s not true anymore. Interesting interview that echoes what folks here know, but emphasizes in particular the value of stories and putting a face on what mass incarceration looks like. Perhaps folks can connect with their local lawmakers & prosecutors to make sure they know who really is impacted by our tough on crime laws.
