Mass incarceration does not work. It has not made us safer. This new report by @ACLU shows just how staggering the scale of mass incarceration is and provides a 50-state blueprint for reducing the number of people incarcerated in the US by half. bit.ly/2NTnIfh
"This issue can’t take four years off...waiting for the perfect person with the perfect motive, with the perfect time, because people’s lives are being spent behind bars." - @VanJones68 🙏👏 #FirstStepAct #FirstStepFall #cjreform mic.com/articles/19123…

As I’m writing for my book, I have to allow my thoughts to take me back into situations from the 20 years that I spent in prison, and these thoughts are horrifying.
"At sentencing they moved us like cattle and I was the last one. By the time they got to me the judge was tired and wanted to go home so he wouldn’t let my boss speak as my character witness. He didn’t care how long I went to prison for." nationofsecondchances.org/gracie-ann-wal…

"I prayed for grace and mercy. For a chance to live life. But it just gets harder as time goes on. The visits from family and friends happen less often. If you’re reading this and you have family in prison, please visit them. Call them. It means so much." nationofsecondchances.org/gracie-ann-wal…
This whole report shows that the clemency process should be taken out of the jurisdiction of the DoJ – who serve the original sentences in the 1st place. We need an impartial committee outside the DOJ. They shouldn't be policing themselves. #ClemencyNOW usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
