  4. When k-12 teachers go on strike, I always have mixed thoughts.

    When I read the demands of the teachers who strike I dually note them, and it all makes sense ( my spouse is an educator--- a sub-- and is treated very poorly on account of being Autistic), YET, the way strikers are going about it is poorly organized.

    I think that bringing parents of students into the fight is IMPERATIVE.

    The teachers are not the victims of the students. As exploited and manipulated as teachers are, it will never equate the oppression of youth.

    Teachers won't be ultimately successful at striking, and winning those strikes, unless they bring their students, and students' families into that fight.

    A teacher can't be arrested for repeatedly not showing up to work. A teacher won't lose custody of their family for not showing up to work. Parents do lose custody of children for repeat truancy. Students do have to show up to court for repeated truancy.

    (This next part is especially toward educators)

    NORMALIZE STUDENTS NOT SHOWING UP TO SCHOOL. NORMALIZE STUDENTS PROTESTING THAT SYSTEM.

    Don't over explain and explain and explain how you're undervalued as an educator and then in a different post, talk about the problems of truancy and students "giving up".

    It seems like you had no problem with being part of the school to prison pipeline as long as it benefitted you.

    You all sound like you want increased pay and benefits for being the children's prison guards

    Hypocrisy and double standards smell worse than fresh dogs' droppings on a hot summer day.

    Skip the hugging. John Hillcoat's deeply unpleasant debut Ghosts… of the Civil Dead (1988) is based on the book In the Belly of the Beast (1981), a collection of excerpts of letters between prisoner Jack Henry Abbott and author Norman Mailer. True to the book's format, Ghosts consists of disjointed vignettes of monologues, #CCTV footage, title cards, and prisoners' phone calls. For the last 37 months, these filters inform the observer, the hypermodern #supermax Central Industrial Prison has been in permanent lockdown. The cast, a mix of professional actors and ex-cons, and the location, a clean factory-style hangar in the middle of the Australian desert, underscore the underlying raw brutality of the unfolding events.

    The #industrial soundtrack is by Bad Seeds Nick Cave (co-writer and starring as Maynard), Mick Harvey, and Blixa Bargeld from when they were still closer to being birthday boys than morose crooners.

    We heard about this #copaganda project from #LeeCamp a while back and were horrified, tooting about it at the time… and we rarely toot about internal #USA affairs.

    It was the fascistic conflence of #BigConstruction, the questionable policing and downright disgusting #slaveLabour (ahem- #prisonSystem), and our distaste for #Hollywood propaganda that compelled us to toot.

    As Lee Camp would say, "Keep fighting"!

  21. When abolitionists talk about abolition, the response is typically vilification of anyone incarcerated, using public safety as an absolute. This point of view supports a profitable system of oppression. Incarcerated people aren’t monsters. Many are locked up wrongfully/illegally. The Prison Journalism Project recognizes them as humans. prisonjournalismproject.org/
