"Censorship is made worse by implementing it more strictly, writes Tomas Keen, a 2023 PEN America Prison Writing Award winner, in Boston Globe's @the_emancipator. "Bans work to further ostracize incarcerated people from society."

“What do you mean they rejected a book on anti-racism?” Tomas Keen asks, checking his stride. “More and more, I’ve seen prisons in my state of Washington banning books on racism, claiming they promote racism and lead to violence.”🧵

America locks up more people than any other country in the world. When all agency is taken away, sometimes the only freedom prisoners have left is found in the pages of a book. This week, three incarcerated writers help us understand the urgency of fighting book bans in prisons.

THE RECALL: REFRAMED is a short film @the_emancipator on the recalling of the judge who issued the lesser jail sentence to Stanford swimmer Brock Turner for sexual assault. It “explores the unintended consequences of equating incarceration with justice.”

Remember the Brock Turner case? What was the ripple effect from that sentencing decision and judge recall on Black & Brown communities? I’m excited to join @rebeccaracing tonight at Harvard Law to talk about her film @RecallReframed and get in to it hls.harvard.edu/events/scree…

The public defenders who worked with Persky found him to be a fair and thoughtful judge. The grace he extended Brock Turner was also extended to a bunch of other Americans.
Recall advocates didn't really care about what would happen to other criminal defendants if they won.
