California spends more on prisons than on higher education. California has had the largest prison building program in the United States. California has 33 state prisons, with others being planned. California's governor recently vetoed bills that would have restored media access to prisons and improved prison education. All living things are sacred.
Punishment is no solution, putting people in cages is no solution.
These things happen because of fear. We believe in taking care of each other in a human way, with compassion. Visit The Other Side of the Wall for more information on California prisons and prisoners.
