Some said there is no one alive today who had anything to do with enslaving black Americans. I personally refute their stance and their statements strongly. I refute their stance with a large body of empirical evidence which clearly shows that the criminal justice system in America – especially in California, it perpetuates and maintains the institution of slavery! However, we are still ignoring the fact that the slavery clause contained within the body of the 13th Amendment of the US Constitution legalizes slavery clause highlighted.
„Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT as a convicted, shall exist within the united states, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.“
Slavery is not abolished yet and we still ain’t free!
There are movements here in America to restore voting who have their right to vote taken from them. I want all of you young people to understand that as soon as a prisoner is released from prison or jail, she or he is expected to find a job and pay taxes. So with this in mind, why can’t all states restore our right to vote?
This is from my perspective for a moment. Think about being trapped in a concrete cage for 23 to 24 hours a day for 365 days out of the year for 125 years like me. Think about how hopeless things can get. So I say to you young people, if you want to be a slave keep getting in trouble and you also be a jail-house slave, keep getting in trouble and you also can be a slave. Black, white, brown or others, can be a slave so please stay out of trouble.
