PrisonSucks.com: Research on the prison industrial complex
Description
About this site
Prisonsucks.com is a clearinghouse for useful, verifiable statistics about the crime control industry. Too often prison activists use statistics that are out of date, provided without citation or simply wrong. One of these days the public will start listening to prison activists, so let's be prepared to win without being sidetracked by arguments over defective statistics. In some cases, the numbers we need don't exist. In others, the facts exist but activists don't know where to find them. Now you do. Start at prisonsucks.com.
The site was founded in February 2001 as a private tool to keep track of prison research superior to a stack of news clippings. In December of that year the site was picked up by the Prison Policy Initiative and considerably expanded.
This site doesn't have much in the way of links to important news events and activist organizations. Why? It's too much work and it's already being done very well by others. However, you can add your own links to our links page, or use these great resources elsewhere:
