Join the Party for Socialism and Liberation for a special film showing of the documentary by Empire Files, "Tortured and Enslaved, Inside the World's Biggest Prison".
The U.S. has just 5% of the world's population, but has 25% of the world's prison population, which especially targets African-American, Latino and Native communities. Mass incarceration is only increasing, especially now as imprisoning immigrant children is a billion dollar industry.
On Aug 21, a nation-wide prison strike was called to protest inhumane housing conditions.
Discussion to follow.
