While we'll be celebrating New Year's Eve, thousands of terrified people will languish in cages, locked up by institutional actors who are deliberately indifferent to the grave risks to their health and safety. Here's a brief summary of my 2020 professional activities.
Early 2020: With the indispensable help of @lindar, I migrate #CaliforniaCorrectionalCrisis to https://t.co/mk2kUVD1XB, which would become the one-stop-shop for the COVID crisis in CA prisons.
February 2020: My book #YesterdaysMonsters, about the hurdles in the path of aging, infirm people seeking parole, comes out. It becomes a frightening omen of things to come in ways I couldn't imagine at the time.
In March it became evident that the only way to prevent an impending catastrophe was to release people. I started collecting resources.
In early April, I linked between the atrocity of Susan Atkins' last hearing and the impending doom of thousands sentenced to death by COVID. It was obvious that the optics of releasing so-called "violent inmates" was going to sabotage relief efforts.
