Incarceration advocates, former inmates and the friends and family of current inmates rallied outside Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office in Manhattan on Monday, calling for changes to the state’s prison system.
Ralliers are demanding changes to the prison system to further protect basic human rights that they are saying have been taken from New York inmates.
Those outside the governor’s office say rallies of this nature took place across the state on Monday, all focusing on the increased repression in New York prisons.
