Political Artwork
Progressive political artwork from the inside. This means art that has some level of anti-prison content.
I have just made this forum called “Progressive Politics.” This is where, when I am online (which is way too much), I talk politics with forum members in this area. I fancy myself a kind of Any Rooney of 60 Minutes fame sort of guy (my wife will groan when she reads this). So expect me to complain a lot and to not say much of substance.
