Any resemblance a character in this story may have to an individual you may know (living or non-living) is unintentionally coinci¬dental.

Prison officials in the Arizona Department of Corrections actively oppress Native American religious exercise. A high ranking religious administrator uses prison policy like a weapon against our people. With their policy, they desecrate our sweat lodge and religious items, force us to prove our race to practice, deny equal access to religious ceremonies, deny the use of ceremonial kinni-kinnick, deny the use of a kettle drum, prevent us from purchasing firewood for our sweat lodge ceremony, and have removed provisions that allow food during our Pow wow ceremony. Several Native American prisoners have gathered and share these experiences here to educate the world about religious oppression happening today in the heartbeat of America. Only with education, courage, and the power of the Great Spirit will we be able to stand up for the Red Nation.

In The Age of Global Terrorism While Governor George W. Bush was running for the highest office in the United States, the United States Supreme Court tossed out the 1993 Amendments to the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure; the law that promotes due process rights as seen by those who have a vested interest in the expansion of the Prison Indust¬rial Complex, but was and still is ignored by the State because of the political consequences State Officials faced if the general public discovered that thousands of innocent people have been incarcerated in the world's second largest prison system. These same Officials have declared war on Global Terrorism yet have managed to keep their acts of terrorism out of the public domain... until now!

A Costly American Hatred is an in-depth look at how America's hatred of "criminals" has led the nation down an expensive path that not only ostracizes and demonizes an ever-growing segment of the population, but is also now so pervasive that it is counterproductive to the goals of reducing crime and keeping society safe, wastes enormous resources, and destroys human lives. Anyone who is convicted of a crime (and many who aren't convicted, but only charged) is no longer considered human in the eyes of the rest of society. This allows them to be ostracized, abused, commoditized, and disenfranchised. The rest of society sanctimoniously rejoices in all of it, with a self-righteous "they deserve it" mantra. It does nothing to lessen crime though. Instead, it more often than not increases crime, tears at the fabric of society and individual families, and creates a permanently impoverished "criminal" underclass. Most people are unaware of just how awry our criminal justice policies have gone. A Costly American Hatred seeks to educate people on how pervasively society ostracizes people who fall into the clutches of the criminal justice system and the toll it is taking on our country.
