End Prison Slavery!
Medium: Watercolor, digital

How to show the 13th Amendment permitting slavery for convicts. This formed the basis for an alliance between government and profit-driven companies, where the government promotes investment in privately-held prisons supplying workers with little to no pay. It’s a vicious cycle that traps 65 million Americans with criminal records to a lifetime of poverty.
