AWKWORD – Throw Away The Key (on Police Violence, Prisons) [VMG Approved]

“’Throw Away The Key’ is more than just a cry for prison reform — it is a call for the overthrow of the entire system of inequality and injustice that is merely exemplified by the inequalities in policing and sentencing. Mass Incarceration, Recidivism, Profiling, Stop And Frisk, Police Brutality (e.g., Tremaine McMillian) and Fatality (e.g., Oscar Grant), Political Prisoners. These are symptoms of a greater societal problem. Add income to the equation, via for-profit prisons, and you have modern day slavery. THIS MUST END.” — AWKWORD #VMGApproved
