This is a music video by British punk band Crass, of Securicor (another name for G4S corporation and for GSL). Lyrics are here.
Private security guards supplied by G4S to remove immigration detainees were branded unprofessional and racist today by the head of Britain’s prisons watchdog: here.
Australian Solicitor-General Stephen Gageler, who defended the government’s Malaysia solution in the High Court, confirmed the court’s decision “cast doubt” on all offshore processing, immigration minister Chris Bowen said on September 4: here.
Australian government’s anti-refugee laws blocked in parliament: here.
Dear Friend,
Guillermo Gomez-Sanchez is a 50 year old legal resident with a mental disability. In 2004 Gomez was detained because of a dispute at a grocery store over a bag of tomatoes.
Guillermo spent two years at a private CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) detention facility – the corporation neglected to report his medical condition.
Watch our video and take a stand with Cuéntame’s Immigrant For Sale documentary campaign today.
CCA profited close to $90,000 off of Gomez’ incarceration, and ensured greater profit by failing to disclose his mental disability effectively leaving Guillermo trapped for 2 years. In 2010 CCA CEO Damon T. Hininger received $3,266,387 in total compensation.
It’s time to put an end to the private prison racket. How many more are suffering lost in a system that values profit over justice? Join the discussion on Facebook today!
Yours,
Robert Greenwald, Axel Caballero and Brave New Foundation’s Cuéntame team.
I invite you to join Cuéntame on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
