BREAKING: The 50 ppl in SQ who are being transferred on Monday were tested 2 days ago, but test results have not come back yet. AFTER being tested, they were mingled w/ those NOT tested-showering in communal showers & walking to the chow hall for dinner & breakfast together.
Adnan Khan@akhan143726 Jun 2020
BREAKING: I’m getting word that San Quentin is transferring 50 ppl OUT of the prison as early as Monday. Reminder. The SQ outbreak is linked directly to a botched transfer TO the prison in the first place. Now they are sending ppl OUT to another prison with ZERO reported cases.

We didn’t bring the virus inside. We can't physically distance in prison and jails. We are getting sick and dying. We should be free. We need action now. #WeMatterToo prisonpolicy.org/blog/2020/0…

What do we know about the spread — and toll — of the coronavirus in state prisons?

Wide variation in the rates of reported infections and deaths in state prisons reflect the uneven spread of the virus and disparate responses by state ...

The police's racist use of excessive force to enforce social distancing is a violation of human rights and dignity. Increase your power as a bystander to abuse by learning to film the police during #COVID19 from this @TeenVogue piece by @PaliMakam. wit.to/TeenVogue-Police-COVI…

"When you have officers that are not trained, they automatically put your health at risk." Inside and outside of prisons, REPEATED acts of violent policing and mistreatment are placing all of our communities at risk. #WeMatterToo #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #OurPeopleOurCommunity

The Marshall Project@MarshallProj28 May 2020
NEW: We asked prison officials from all 50 states and the federal government for the race of people tested for, diagnosed or killed by COVID-19 behind bars. Only one state gave us all the data we asked for. 43 released nothing. themarshallproject.org/2020/…

Is COVID-19 Falling Harder on Black Prisoners? Officials Won’t Tell Us.

Some prison systems aren’t collecting race data. Others won’t disclose it. Experts say these are big mistakes.

You leave prison with $200. You face immense obstacles towards employment, housing, and critical services due to a felony record. The system punishes you and impedes opportunities at every turn. It's always been a crisis for #OurPeople. #WeMatterToo tinyurl.com/y8he6sl2

Gayle King: "What action can white people take?" @Ava: "I feel that that's not a question that people who are not white should answer. We take on the emotional labor of racism. And it is not our job to explain to white folk how to fix their broken selves in this context, right?"

"We have to look to history. We're not the first to be in this situation. And I think the idea that we are helpless is just an idea that I don't accept." @Ava on the current climate in America. #BlackLivesMatter
