Striking Prisoners In New York Gulag Being 'Unduly Punished'
CLG Exclusive: Striking Prisoners In New York Gulag Being 'Unduly Punished' (Letter to CLG reader from Albor Ruiz) "...This is the email address of Bobby Khan, the guy from the Coney Island Aveny Project I mention in my column: ahsanullah@hotmail.com. Because of his involvement with the situation of the people imprisoned in the Queens Detention Center, he is the person who can tell you how you can help with this outrage. By the way, I just found out that the striking prisoners are being unduly punished..." --Albor Ruiz

See: 200 locked away & under the radar (August 18, 2004) --by Albor Ruiz "There is a little gulag in New York City... Its name is the Wackenhut Detention Center, and more than 200 human beings - men and women - languish ignored within its walls. Yet most New Yorkers have never heard about it... Shameful as it is, the misfortune of these immigrants and their families is just one more opportunity for big profits for Wackenhut, the private corporation running the jail under contract with the federal government."
