“It's disheartening to see a system that profits from the theft of labor and the captivity of humans functioning so effectively. The 13th Amend abolished slavery. #ExceptForMe.” – @yattaman44 Watch Kenyatta’s story & take action to #EndTheException at endtheexception.com/exceptfo…

🚨The second incarcerated person this week dies on Rikers—11th this year. This is an absolute scandal. Rikers is in crisis & @NYCMayor refuses to take action to save lives. How many deaths will it take for Mayor Adam’s to address the ongoing crisis? #CutShutInvestNY #CloseRikers
BREAKING: A male detainee died inside a Rikers Island mental observation unit in the Anna M. Kross Center at 10:13 a.m., according to a jail source. He's the 11th person behind bars to die this year.
