Why is it always “I grew up around Black people, so I use the n word,” but never “I grew up around Black people, so I got a degree in African studies” 😭😭😭
Incarcerated people in Oklahoma are working in call centers... and sometimes they make calls on behalf of conservative super PACs.
They described doing as many as 800 calls a day, facing performance quotas, and delivering conservative scripts they didn't fully understand.
All they make is $2/hour, while the Department of Corrections gets $10/hour. We need to close the slavery loophole in the 13th amendment.
Aside from the fact that it's immoral to exploit incarcerated people for what's basically slave labor, these call centers generate a lot of profit.
There are plenty of Americans who can do those jobs for a living wage. They shouldn't have to compete with a captive population who's coerced to take a small fraction of what the labor is really worth.
One of our proudest moments is hosting a brothers' retreat for veterans of the Black Panther Party, BLA, and former political prisoners. This is why the Love, Land, and Liberation project is so important for Community Movement Builders @CommunityMvt
Yall still don’t hate cops enough. Nearly every single place where Flock cameras or some equivalent have been installed officers have been found stalking and surveilling people. Mostly women and girls
