When Telling the Truth Makes You a Target Responding to TL700 CCDOC

Listen Later
In this conversation, Cierra emphasizes the critical role of whistleblowers in exposing the truths about harm and neglect within jails and prisons. She discusses the importance of challenging a culture that prioritizes self-protection over human life and advocates for a system that values integrity and truth-telling.
takeaways
  • We will continue to give space to whistleblowers, officers, staff, and the incarcerated people and their families who want to tell the truth.
  • We will continue to document stories of harm, neglect, and abuse inside jails and prisons.
  • We will also continue to challenge a culture that prioritizes protecting itself over protecting human life.
  • If that makes you uncomfortable, I want you to sit with why.
  • A system that truly valued integrity wouldn't be angry at people who tell the truth.
  • It would be angry at the people who keep creating the conditions we're talking about.
