Not only do prisoners being release from North Carolina prisons have an obligation to utilize their voting rights, and encouraging their family and friends to do the same. They also have a very special election that is mandatory to their well being. "Judicial election." Approximately a week before North Carolina prisoners are released, their city or county law enforcement, are aware of the prisoners release. At this point the ex-felon becomes prey to a racial criminal justice system...

A Colossal Disparity In The Florida Prison System By AKA Kingsta January 16, 2018 I understand I was sentenced to serve time in the Florida Department of Corrections (FDOC) even though I was wrongfully convicted. However, a prison sentence subjecting me to cruel and unusual punishment and unequal treatment violates both federal and state constitutions and Florida state law. At the very moment I stepped off the large bus (blue bird) at the reception and medical center of Lake Butler Correction...

A Daoist Interpretation of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali I recently read The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, translated by James Haughton Woods, 1927, with interest. Not expecting a fresh insight because it was an unabridged republication from almost a hundred years ago, I wasn't shocked to find this text true to the writing style of an earlier time. Personal experience on unrelated adventures greatly assisted in my understanding of this text. Many years ago and housed in a four man cell with t...

Once, the prison system was incorporated to the country's economy (i.e. created jobs); all rehabilitation went out of the picture. The lockdowns became longer, riots, attempt to murders, and murder became regular and normal. All of California's level four maximum security ...

A Little Bit of Sunshine by Keith Allen Deaton The morning was absolutely beautiful. A thick snowfall began to cover the landscape. When I woke, I didn't think to look out the condensation covered window. The grayish (alpine blue) bars not being my first thought or interest in the morning. Only later after I brushed my teeth did someone exclaim "Hey, it's snowing." Today is Wednesday and it would be a good day! For the last several months, Wednesday is always a good day! R...

Taliaferro, Jr. Introduction In 1996 Congress passed the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA) in response to a few highly publicized--but isolated and over—exaggerated--instances of prisoner abuse of the judicial process. The PLRA was designed as a tool to curb those abuses by making it more diffi- cult for prisoners to seek judicia...

A Short Treatise on Reality By Maakneril I.K. Bey © 2015 Within the culture that we, as young Asiatic (so called Black, Brown, Indian, etc.) men in America, now surround and submerge ourselves are a multitude of misconceptions. Amongst the slums and poverty-stricken neighborhoods of every city, town, and/or municipality are, as one example, men who pride themselves on being “real” or “real niggaz”; and this very mentality has not only contributed to the masses of Asiatic men now incarcerated ...

A speed trap in a small Midwestern town, circa 1952. That is how I equate the current state of criminal justice in the United States today. The unsuspecting citizen who explores his options in other states and has little or no roots in the area is easy prey forvictimization by the system. The long-hair, the African American, the female, any outsider, even someone like a young independent boy with sagging trousers and an in-your- face sound system in his car thumping rap music — these are the ...

A Supreme Manifestation of Wisdom by Maakneru [ineligible] Bey @2016 Not long ago I was asked a question that I could not possibly answer without some thought. I don't like to bound myself within the understandings or perceptions of another, so responding with a prefabricated or cliched answer was out of the realm of possibility. As "Maakneru" I try to remain in that reality; that is as pure and honest with myself and the spirit within as I could be and thus manifesting the sam...

Then, as soon as you walk out of the door, police officers unexpectedly approach you with menacing scowls. Once they are upon you, they aggressively grab you by ...

Essays by Eric Volume One A View From Inside I never expected to be in prison. I felt I was too slick. I thought I was too smart, too educated, too worldly to let anyone 'trick' me into their 'system'. Sitting here now with a life + ten year sentence, I have plenty of time to contemplate, elucidate and expound on things urbane, sublime and just plain insane as I continue to 'serve' time. By now, (10 years into my bid) it doesn't really matter that I didn&apo...

I like REO Speedwagon, Journey, Rolling Stones, Kiss, Ratt, Dio, Motley Crue, R&B, candlelit dinners, and slowed eyed moments. I also like volleyball, skating, softball, nature, animals, people, and I love God. My downside, and for the majority of my crazy and undisciplined life I have been a criminal. I don't know why I chose to s...

It comes about usually at the discretion of the guards, who have decided to move a person for concerns of safety or convenience. You have left your cell to go to yard for your dail...

American Prison: The Largest Sinkhole of Taxpayer Dollars in History A recent report called "Follow the Money of Mass Incarceration" says taxpayers spend approximately 182 billion dollars per year on incarceration. That is 182, followed by 9 zeros. Numbers that large are difficult to comprehend. I mean a lot of calculators don't have screens that wide!

An Almost Love Story When Olivia Martin moved into the PC unit, she could have passed for a woman: five feet nine, slender, with smooth brown skin and braided black hair, her walk feminine. I received advanced knowledge about Olivia from CO Romer. Romer said she had hormone shots before her incarceration, which accounted for her womanly chest. Somehow she was also able to maintain red lips, though cosmetics were not available in the men’s prisons. That was one of her little secrets. But Olivia...
