Description:From the introduction: "'Voices from Attica' – a compilation of twelve powerful narratives of people incarcerated at Attica Correctional Facility in 2014 – paints a picture of endemic staff violence and abuse at this infamous prison."The prison walls are designed not only to keep incarcerated people in, but also to keep the public out. At the same time, the entire institution of prison currently operates in a manner that strips incarcerated people of their autonomy, their agency, their humanity, and their voice. Attica Correctional Facility in particular is designed to dehumanize and disempower the men who are incarcerated there. As the Correctional Association of NY has advocated, Attica needs to be closed because of the long history of, and continued infliction of, brutality, violence and abuse. The movement for that change must be, and is being, led by the people who are incarcerated at Attica. This document attempts to do the opposite of the current system of incarceration, and provide a platform for raising the voices of people incarcerated at Attica to let members of the public know about their experiences behind the walls."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
