I had a conversation with folks who worked on Pelican Bay issues at Humboldt State. I work with Transgender individuals to fight discrimination in prisons and I had a conversation with Angela Davis about it, she really inspired me to think about how to solve current prison issues. I also grew up in Delano, where prisons have taken over and the United Farm Workers headquarters was even taken over for a prison. Which leads to immigration issues involving imprisoned people.
I suppose you might say I have a general interest in classes of people who have distinct and difficult lots in life. That interest leads to things like doing social work with formerly homeless people for a living and looking into this group. And, honestly, I spent a tiny bit of time in the custody of the State of Florida when i was 18 (I am now 25).
Ive been looking around for some kind of prison reform nonprofit to volunteer for. You know of any?
are we on for tomorrow?
