There are pregnant minors imprisoned in these for -profit prisons, separated from their families without access to lawyers or well-being checks. The DNC wouldn't even give Palestinian Americans/immigrants a speaking roll at our convention. Centering corporate wishes, while giving lip service to justice, might drag you into the shit that your pawns already experience, but your losing their support while you undermine justice for all and fund their demise while blaming them is some empire-level double speak. That the most disenfranchised among us somehow fuck up your committee chairmanships.
