On Sept. 13, 1971, authorities killed 39 men at Attica Correctional Facility, following a takeover by inmates who were protesting poor treatment. On Sept. 14, newspapers across the country repeated the lies from officialdom about the carnage.
We are highlighting just a few of the figures who remain in prison or are otherwise unable to live freely inside the kingdom, where secret trials, detention and censorship have created a climate of fear.
In time, our home will come to mean different things to outsiders, more frightening things than computers and Hollywood and beaches and whatever else the world dreams when it dreams of California.
