Seeking the Death Penalty for the Prison Industrial Complex

On Saturday, May 30, Linda Wilkins-Daniels, along with others held a forum on The Prison Industrial Complex & the U.S. Court Systems with the theme, "Speaking for the Speechless." The Social Spitball Show recently rebroadcast that forum on Thursday, June 25.

If you missed the forum, or the rebroadcast on our show, be sure to tune in to this discussion with Linda and others on what we call "Seeking the Death Penalty for the Prison Industrial Complex."

There are so many issues involved in this terrible system of oppression, abuse and neglect. The "Schools to Prison Pipline," regentrification of neighborhoods, the "War on Drugs," mandatory minimum sentencing, abusive policing, for-profit prisons, the repeal by the North Carolina General Assembly of the Racial Justice Act and many more topics covered in the wonderful expose book "The New Jim Crow" by Michelle Alexander could be part of this first conversation of many on The #SocialSpitballShow.

We will have a roundtable style discussion on these issues and why and how they should be eradicated from our "justice" system.

Barbara & I welcome you to call (646) 478-3349 to join the conversation on our show, which will start just after 7pm Eastern/4pm Pacific.

There's lots to cover. Let's get the conversation going...
