Detention Dispatches
Detention Dispatches: Black Lives Matter
Detainees at the Mesa Verde Detention Facility stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
“We are speaking from the Mesa Verde facility in Bakersfield, California. We stand with the Black Lives Movement and against the system that took the lives of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade and so many black people. We are speaking out against the disregard of human lives. We’re speaking out against the racist criminal justice system.”
