"Dedicated to Kalief Browder(R.I.P.) and the countless others stigmatized and victimized by an unjust "justice system," that targets the poor and people of color, who enter the system never to escape- or emerge broken beyond repair"...C-Who?
Kalief Browder was 16 yrs. old when he was arrested and falsely accused of stealing a back pack. Unable to post bail, he was sent to Rikers Island where he was brutalized by guards, put into solitary confinement, after refusing to plead out- accept a charge he was not guilty of in order to obtain freedom. He endured 3 yrs. in prison,(nearly 2 in solitary confinement)with no trial, and then was released with no charges filed. Deeply traumatized by his ordeal in prison, Kalief struggled with paranoia and depression after being released, and committed suicide at 22 yrs. old.
