Welcome to DefundDOC.net, the podcast where hosts Linda and Daniel J. Simms tackle pressing issues surrounding the Federal Bureau of Prisons and the State Department of Corrections. In this episode, they delve into the question of whether these institutions intentionally incite violence. They shed light on the artificial scarcity of resources in prison environments, which leads to violence, gang formation, and a cycle of recidivism. The hosts discuss the consequences of this scarcity on prisoners and society, highlighting court cases that establish liability for this deliberate indifference. They propose multi-faceted solutions such as ending prisoner slavery, transforming prisons into treatment and career centers, and implementing meaningful sentencing reform. Listeners are encouraged to raise awareness, support prison reform causes, and vote for politicians committed to change. The podcast offers a free subscription with a digital copy of Daniel's books, as well as updates on a reality show pilot and Defund DOC brand items that contribute to the social justice mission. Join Linda and Daniel as they inspire listeners to be catalysts for a future where all prisons prioritize rehabilitation and change.
