@nowthisimpact: No more in-person visits, but plenty of profits — guess who’s cashing in? Orgs like Civil Rights Corp and Public Justice are working to restore the ‘right to hug’ in prisons. #criminaljustice #prison #michigan
A good amount of prisons just see them as free labor and money huts not rehabilitation, or protection

If a jail bans, or makes it nearly impossible to visit, ALL calls should be free.

The American Prison system doesn’t help rehabilitate, it only exists to profit off of people and keeping them locked up as long as possible

In other countries everything a prisoner needs is provided by their families, it serves as a deterrent. The prison system in the US on the other hand is all about profit.
