It brings me much grief that I must be the bringer of terrible news, but then again it must be said and so I continue. Our fellow humans are being tortured and we have done nothing about it. I recently learned about a man named Sebastian Richardson. Richardson is 51 years old. Richardson is apparently one of many who are faced with horrendous abuse and brutal treatment brought upon him by the justice system.
The Devil in the White City The Devil in the White City is a historical non-fiction book written by Erik Larson that reads like a novel.

I am a Perpetrator. I oppress people that do not agree with me. Upstanders are hopeless, meaningless people to me. Before I got overthrown, I ruled above all the other citizens, enjoying rights that the other classes didn’t have. But my country didn’t like me, and they unanimously voted to overthrow me, even after I promised to make the Bystanders and Victims lives better.
After arguing the failure of prisons, Mendieta establishes his agreement with Davis’ anti-prison rhetoric without introducing the author, her book, or other various abolitionist efforts, “I will also argue that Davis’s work is perhaps one of the best philosophical as well as political responses to the expansion of the prison system...” (Mendieta 293).

Mendieta’s act of assuming that readers will already be familiar with Angela Davis and her work, as well as the specific methods of torture used by certain prisons, may cause readers to feel lost while reading the
Although the concluding source of passing is ambiguous, one thing is perfectly and apparently discernible, that the premise of the unearned detention was from not extinguishing her cigarette as directed by Texas State Trooper Encinia after he halted her for not indicating a lane change. While casually perusing social media, one can readily unearth her final discourse fervently and passionately proclaiming that if Caucasians connect in the plight to preserve and cherish black lives, a necessary revamping of the enormously biased judicial system would transpire. As the arresting state trooper forcibly mishandled her, she affably expressed gratitude to a concerned, alarmed eyewitness for capturing that calamitous confrontation with the pugnacious and irascible state trooper. Hence, she was a strong and formidable advocate for the utilization of cellular phones and social media as catalysts to affect societal changes and effectively immobilize police brutality. Furthermore, some believe police officers silenced this once powerful activist indefinitely in that prison compartment, because from the initial encounter with the arresting officer and until her incarceration, she vocalized persistently with obscenities her rudimentary constitutional rights as a citizen.

When looking at the interaction between the government and deviant citizens of Night Vale there is a clear distinction of right and wrong implying that the stance on deviance that the town itself takes would be more of a positivist perspective.

Terror in the Heart of Freedom: Citizenship, Sexual Violence, And The Meaning of Race in the Postemancipation South is a depiction of the struggle and horrors that the freed African American individuals faced and endured during the the post emancipation time period in the Southern states. With a special emphasis on Memphis, Tennessee and Little Rock, Arkansas. Rosen focuses on the issues surrounding how the discussions and events surrounding African American citizenship were framed around gender. Rosen sheds a light on the sexual abuse and rape that African American women were subject to during this time. Rosen also elaborates on how gender was used to frame men in a negative light by stereo types that described African American men as unable to fulfill their duty as the patriarch in their family, vagrant, unwilling to work, and unable to control and protect their women.
Listen here fellow American brothers! We have been with Britain for a long time now and they are making things difficult for us. They are not helping us, they are only helping themselves. We need end this and fight for our freedom! Just think about everything that they have done to us.
The stories of the ladies in Maryland only women prison allowed me to see the reality of what women are truly facing and dealing with.
