"As #prisons go, #EasternStatePenitentiary in #Philadelphia was unusually luxurious. For one, it had flush toilets — beating out even the #WhiteHouse in making the upgrade, #museum exhibit developer #BethTinker told me on a recent tour.
But if plumbing reflected the #penitentiary’s commitment to #prisoners’ physical well-being, its biggest innovation was more spiritual. Eastern State housed the first #synagogue inside a #US #prison, complete with a #Torah #ark and #nertamid, or eternal light. That restored sanctuary — a short walk from gangster #AlCapone’s former cell — is now newly open to the public in a museum exhibit, Freedom through Faith: #Judaism at #EasternState and Beyond.
“It’s a place really of humanity, when you’re not getting a lot of humanity in this space,” Tinker said.
The synagogue, founded in 1922, hosted holiday celebrations and weekly #Shabbat services."

The first appearance of the heroic Dr. Hussam Abu Safieh 💔😔
From his court appearance in Jerusalem a short while ago
Tormented, emaciated, exhausted, his punishment for being a human being and a doctor who performed his duty with courage and dedication... We are literally living in a jungle
He is being tried before the world, and his crime is that he was a doctor who did not abandon his patients#prisoners #HussamAbuSafieh #Gaza #palestine #genocide #Israel #freepalestine #freeGaza #fyp #Gaza

@vfrmedia @EF @ChrisMayLA6 The problem with the theory of #deterrence, generally speaking, is that it doesn't work. It works for the law-abiding, like you & me, but not for the people it needs to work for - the #criminals. If it DID, our #jails would be empty, instead of full to bursting. #Prison works as #punishment, but not as a #deterrent. Some #prisoners can be #rehabilitated, but that needs effort.

From Waves of Sumud:
"Use your voice, speak up for Palestinians being detained, abused, tortured.
It takes a few minutes to send emails to 47+ government officials. Do it, urgently.

"More than 9,600 Palestinians are currently held in the Israeli regime’s detention facilities. Of these, more than 3,500 are held under administrative detention, imprisoned indefinitely without charge or trial."
