Constance Kosuda a retired trial lawyer now living in Las Vegas, NV, specialized in Workers Compensation and Social Security Disability for more than 20 years. Working in Newark for more than 17 years, most of her clients were black, poor, and undereducated (as many of them started to work at the age of 6 on the family farm, missing many months from school each year). In the Courts, she witnessed first-hand the disparate treatment afforded plaintiffs of color, of lower socioeconomic standing, in short, all who did not remind the Judge in question of his or her own family or friends. She has been studying the connections between incarceration, poverty, racism, sexism, elitism (based on who one knows, and how much money one has), education, and the possibilities of social reform.It is now obvious to her that there is no such thing as "coincidence" and that the incarceration of poor people is a deliberate attempt to fund and keep healthy all of the Department of Corrections in this country, not only in Nevada. She has witnessed and is documenting the erosion of civil and legal rights in this country.She is also appearing before the Clark County School District, the 5th largest in the country, speaking out every session in the 3-5 minutes allotted to her, a lowly member of the "public" for social equality and justice, in an attempt to quash the plans for future generations of incarcerated human beings.
