Check out these powerful #s about racial incarceration disparities of men & women born in 2001 (so about the same age as many of my @merrillcollege @CNSmd @vfstories students). A day full of eye opening information including this by @lipiroy. Thanks @Poynter @atompkins #j262b – at Baltimore, MD

It is a decision to jail individuals. “It is a choice, and it is a choice we are making on a daily basis.” The ore trial process resembles a “choose your own adventure” book.

The national mass incarceration issue is a local issue, and no two jails look alike according to @NancyFishman1
