"In last November’s election, a majority of #California voters declined to outlaw forced labour among incarcerated people, who make up around 30 per cent of California’s firefighters and are paid between $5.80 and $10.24 per day. At least eight hundred of them are now up against #LA’s infernos. What the state will not pay to provide it will extract through coercion." - Anahid Nersessian

I’ve read in the past 48 hrs there are approx 10,000 firefighters currently battling the #LAWildFires from all over including Canada and Mexico…and now I see a tenth of these may be prisoners.

‘The state pays inmates a daily wage between $5.80 and $10.24 (£4.75 and £8.38), and an additional $1 per day when assigned to active emergencies.’

Rehabilitation or exploitation?

Very few get hired by the fire service once they’ve served their time…

Yeah I’m calling it.
This is going to be worse than the Northridge earthquake and the ‘94 Malibu fires combined. In terms of buildings, heritage/history and lives lost.

Octavia Butlers house gone. Jackie Robinsons house is gone. Will rogers estate lost. Abolitionist John Brown’s site gone. The legendary 150 year old Christmas tree lane destroyed. #JPL #NASA in the line of fire.

#Altadena barely exists anymore. #Pasadena is going to shift forever. It is heartbreaking. #eatonfire #LAWildfires
