Indictment of the State and its Prison Industrial Slave Complex

What do we do when the institutions responsible for upholding, and in some instances making, "the law" are the chief architects of its habitual violation? What do we, the People, do in an alleged "democracy" when the financial gain and political power of those who are vested with the responsibility of upholding the law is inextricably linked to maximizing the number of criminal offenders under their control; when their job security, livelihood, political and social influence is dependent on high crime and incarceration rates; when they are beholden to corporate interests in exchange for kickbacks and gratuities, to ensure profits are met on the backs of a constant flow of people being imprisoned?" It is these questions and more that Joka Heshima Jinsai explores, and answers, in this scathing Indictment of the greatest exploiter of human bondage the world has ever known: the American Prison Industrial Slave-Complex. First conceived by Abdul Olugbala Shakur, Jinsai took this concept and brought it to fruition in a Nine Count Indictment that will compel even the most conservative minds to rethink the nature and structure of the judicial and "correctional" machinery in the United States.
