The U.S. money bail system is largely to blame for over-crowded jails across the nation. 70 percent of people are incarcerated for one simple reason: being too poor. Unscrupulous bail bond contracts allow private corporations to make exorbitant profits off of people … Continued

Pack the Police Commission: Demand Accountability @ Oakland City Hall, Oscar Grant Plaza | Oakland | California | United States
