There's hardly a debate about closing failing schools but when it's a failed jail filled with mostly marginalized people, foots drag.

NYC has the most expensive & heavily-staffed jail system in the country, with the worst results. @NYCMayor wants to increase their budget. We need the Council to say NO. SIGN here to send a message to @NYCSpeakerCoJo to #DeflateDOC

I don't understand why people are shocked to see agents of the empire oppress people. That is their job! They protect the bourgeoisie, control with violence, and repress the poor/working class.

Today, there's a report of another death inside our city’s jails. 9 deaths this year is unacceptable. There’s a reason so many of us have been sounding the alarm at Rikers and across NYC’s correctional facilities. We are in crisis mode and must take action. My statement:
