Do Lies and White Supremacists Run U.S. Prisons?

FEATURING DR. BRITTANY FRIEDMAN - Donald Trump pardoned nearly 1,600 people involved in the January 6, 2021 insurrection in Washington D.C., this, in spite of claiming he was a “law-and-order” president. 

Trump, who takes office as the first person in U.S. history to be a felon, has promised to unleash police from all restrictions and reincarcerate thousands–a move many interpret as directly aimed at Black and Brown communities. 

A new book examines the history, particularly in California, of prison as a tool of white supremacy–of particular relevance today.
