🔽 Yep! Watch now defunded @pbs.org program #SlaveryByAnotherName
If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

When you enslave a person, you enslave their whole family.
When you put a person in a cage, you cage their whole family.

It is called convict leasing & it goes back 100+ years as away of exploiting laborers

😖 Just 😭 watched @pbs.org show #SlaveryByAnotherName. Slavery NEVER really ended ANYWHERE until 1960's Civil rights movement EXCEPT for RED states. So 🤬 & embarrassed by how our country of immigrants has mistreated & CONTINUE to mistreat our fellow Americans so POORLY.

😭 Recommend you watch (now defunded) @pbs.org program, #SlaveryByAnotherName, if your heart can survive lots of 🤬
I refuse to believe we are going to relitigate slavery. SLAVERY. It’s too much.

Better yet, what if we not only taught it in school but made it required viewing for presidential candidates! Imagine! #slaverybyanothername

For Just Dollars a Day, Inmates Fight California’s Fires... Actually, $5.80-$10.24/day w/$1 extra 4 active emergency duty. It's shameful. It's past time 2 talk & do something about it. And, they aren't eligible 2 become firefighters upon release! #slaverybyanothername

For Just Dollars a Day, Inmates Fight California’s Fires
Hundreds of incarcerated people are firefighting in Los Angeles. They are paid a maximum of $10.24 a day, and receive an additional $1 for each hour that they battle the deadly blazes.

#slavery was never abolished in the #US, it was only modified, as explicitly defined in the #13thAmendment.

The #prisonindustrialcomplex is literally #slaverybyanothername.

Where are the international sanctions on the #unitedstates?

And people are still confused as to how we can be allies […]

Shameful! California’s Prisoners fighting wildfires isn't new, but it's way past time 2 discuss this. Risking their lives & serving the public 4 $5.80-$10.24/day + $1 more during an active emergency?! Seriously?!#SlaveryByAnotherName #13thAmendment

Oh, you mean the mortality rate?
Sure—because dying slowly in a for-profit cage while your labor lines corporate pockets is so much more civilized.
Let me guess, you also think slavery was fine because not all the enslaved died immediately?

There are people who wake up every day and go to work at for-profit incarceration corporations to set their mind to the daily question "how many more people can we imprison and how quickly can we do it?"

Enjoy @pbs.org @americanexperience.bsky.social & #AmericanMasters? The many films and series of @kenlburns.bsky.social? The documentary -- still streaming, #SlaveryByAnotherName? And most accompanied with teacher training and community screening materials, such as www.neh.gov/project/crea....

I'm just going with the archaic traditional house rules of "just doing business" by paying off our debts by servitude that became the honor amongst thieves, 60/40. 20% interest "loan sharks" knowing people will not be able to pay it off. #PayUp Property? or servitude? which is #SlaveryByAnotherName.
