We're not trying to play favorites, but these new collaborations between Mz. Stigma and several of our artists are pretty epic: https://t.co/34BwqFkegM #art#abstractart#prisonart#prisonpaintings
I'm going to be uploading some phone images of the newest paintings, sadly my scanner isn't working and I have some amazing artwork that absolutely needs to be shared. Stay tuned.
@ClintSmithIII They're a highly stigmatized group of individuals.
They have their identity stripped and they're given a number. I can't imagine feeling like a person if someone called me "Inmate 999999" on a daily basis, forcing me to be strip-searched whenever I wanted to hug my family.
There are far too many people who aren't going to care, because if it's not happening to them, it's not really important. Just sad. When did #empathy and #compassion go out of fashion?
Let's see... #IfTheWorldHadNoFuckwits , we might start listening to scientists and doctors again, rather than saying "my opinion/feelings are as valid as your facts/science so much so they cancel out reality". That would be nice, refreshing, even.
This person is boasting about denying medical care to inmates if they don't watch their language...wow. Can you imagine being kicked out of the ER if you said "shit" and they refuse to treat you? Apparently these "medical professionals" don't believe #InmatesArePeople
@Ryan_Pater5on @ladygaga Unless you've been in prison, actually inside a facility, you don't know what it's like - Orange is the New Black is not a reasonable approximation. I work with inmates, I've seen their cells, I've tasted the food they eat - you have not. Bye now.
@LibertePensador@nypost Read the article, they found *nothing* on the woman, in her car, or on the child. Yet they still made them go to a "no contact" visit. Poorly handled, I hope whomever authorized the strip search was fired.
@Cdub470@nypost And yet in this case they found nothing on the woman, the child, or in her car. Yet a little girl got traumatized trying to visit her dad - and then they wouldn't let them have a contact visit anyway. Worst handling possible. Why not make her bend over and cough, too. #Wrong
