The scene outside the #WhiteHouseCorrespondentsDinner #WHCD Many attendees had a very bad time trying to get in, with protesters lining the street and asking them why they’re complicit in the US media’s genocide-washing. Feel free to use these photos & credit us.

Prison telecom is a $1.4 billion industry. While corporations & private equity firms profit, millions of families across the country are suffering. Today, we’re discussing how corporations profit off family separation and what communities & advocates are doing to fight back! 🧵

Unfortunately, for millions of people across the country with an incarcerated family member, staying connected is much more difficult. A 15-minute phone call can run as high as $8.25, a 25-minute video call up to $15.00, and basic emails cost as much as $0.50! 3/11

The added cost of trying to stay in touch, forces 1 in 3 into debt, with women carrying 87% of the cost burden, and disproportionately women of color. All while prison telecom providers and their investors get rich. 5/11

In fact, Securus, the nation’s largest prison telecom corporation, recently defaulted on $1.3 billion of debt! But there is still so much more work to be done. Read more about the issue on the #Right2Hug website. 10/ 11 right2hug.org/how-corporatio…
