These private for profit "detention" centers have got to be eliminated. Same with for profit prisons. Yesterday, I read what it was like for the phd student that just got out of a detention center, ( I would respectfully go back and try to find her name but I'm doing this on my phone and if I go backwards everything disappears) how she talked about the guards got me thinking that for good pay people will do anything and close off their hearts. My god what is happening to our world? 😭
