As second chance month ends, along with National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, will your organization continue to hold up stories of successful rebirths from the system and the intersection of crime survivors in CJR/decarceration efforts? (See @CrimeVictimsOrg✊).

“If we, as a society, cannot stomach the splatter from an execution carried out by firing squad," federal judge Alex Kozinski wrote in 2014, "then we shouldn’t be carrying out executions at all.” https://t.co/oPGpZGgmE1

The criminal punishment system we have and are now doubling down on in this country brings to mind the quote that “the greatest evidence that there is intelligent life in the universe beyond is that they have never contacted us.” #prison #justice #JusticeMatters

The underlying issue of the blatantly wasteful “justice” system we have & maintain is a matter of empathy & exposure. The more proximity we have to a problem, the more we see the complexity of it & the simplicity of addressing it: lean in; it IS your problem.

Is it reasonable to have an opinion about criminal “justice” system policies if you don’t interact with people who’ve been through the system? That’s like letting someone in another country tell you how to teach your child accountability?
