DESCRIPTION:
A talk by Clyde Young:

Mass Incarceration, its source, the need to resist where things are heading, and the revolution we need.

2.4 million people, most of them Black and Latino, in prison!

Racial profiling a pipeline to prison for generations of our youth.

Former prisoners discriminated against on virtually every front!

Clyde Young says, “All this comes down to a slow genocide which could easily accelerate.” On March 24, Young breaks all this down and speaks to where things are headed if action is not taken. Listen to Young as he discusses, “What kind of revolution is needed to eliminate mass incarceration and all the brutality and misery this capitalist system enforces on humanity once and for all.”

Clyde Young is a Revolutionary Communist and a former prisoner. He served time in juvenile facilities as a teen. His transformation from a life of crime to a revolutionary, which serving a 20-year prison sentence for armed robbery is discussed in an interview in The Bandana Republic: A Literary Anthology by Gang Members & Their Affiliates (Soft Skull Press, 2008). Clyde has written articles supporting the two California prisoner hunger strikes in 2011 – the first in July and the second in September. These hunger strikes involved thousands of prisoners. He is currently working to expand the Stop Mass Incarceration – We're Better Than That Network, a network that includes such prominent figures as Carl Dix, Cornel West and Herb Boyd.
