The prison business in the U.S. is not based on locking up, punishing, or rehabilitating dangerous hoodlums. Follow the money and find how the prison-industrial complex fits into the New World Order of free trade and imprisoned people, the war on drugs, and capital flight.
Linda Evans is a former anti-imperialist political prisoner. She was incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institute in Dublin, California for 16 years. Linda was released in 2001 via a pardon by president Bill Clinton, along with Susan Rosenberg, another political prisoner. Eve Goldberg is a writer, filmmaker, and prisoners' rights activist.
