WHEN THE CATS' AWAY By William Thorpe

The completion of the adage is.....THE MICE WILL PLAY and the CAT, is the People of Virginia and of course the MICE are the Virginia Department of Corrections. Why is this adage apt, because it concisely fits the behavior of the Virginia Prison Official. The People of Virginia regardless of reasons and assumptions have neglected their responsibilities, which as it applys to this work, is paying attention to and understanding what is being done in their name by the Virginia Department of Corrections and its prison official. First of all let's all be clear on this the Virginia Prisoner is not an enemy combatant, or member of an opposing army nor an insurgent, despite the fatuous verbiage of "war on crime" deployed and exploited by political shortsightedness. The Virginia prisoner is simply a human being, a Virginia citizen processed under Virginia's Justice and Legal infrastructure and imprisoned. In other words just as The Supreme Court of The United States, deployed the formulation, "significant and atypical hardship" as due process distinction in prison conditions, Constitutional DUE PROCESS adjudication, every single Virginian can excpect to experience imprisonment under Virginia's Justice Infrastructure not as an extraordinary occurrence but as part of, again under The Nations highest Court jurisprudence, the ordinary incidents of life. So in other words if any Virginian can experience Virginia's imprisonment scheme then, the mere pedestrian fact of imprisonment doesn't then cause and assume diametric transformation of citizen into an enemy combatant, which currently is the conventional wisdom applied viz, imprisonment in Virginia. Whether or not the Virginia prison official is a corrupt and malfeasant embodiment is an argument laid out in the various lawsuits, claims, allegations efforts by Virginia prisoners petitioning government. What this work is concerned with is the point and position that, the Commonwealth of Virginia is a lawless construct without The People understanding and filling their role as The People, final arbiter of all things Human Condition, Social Contract and Society. There's nothing complicated and disingenuous about the recognition that imprisonment in Virginia wasn't originally and historically constructed in pursuit of "Justice", however we are where we are with it and it cannot have one foot in antebellum Plantationesque presumptions and its intellectual-liberalism, while the other is playing footsie in modernity, the democratization of the rule of law and in communion and association with the civilizing aspirations of Human progress. Imprisonment in Virginia is the effect of imposition of sentence for a set period and within that set period are all sorts of mechanisms acknowledging and recognizing that the imprisonment could have been a travesty of justice for any number of reasons, because there is nothing that's infallible. The Virginia prison official is one tasked with operating under law and not above it, yet due to the Rip Van Winkle aspect of The Virginia People's attention, the Virginia prison official has relatively sneered, smirked and become pretentious in observing those Social Contract privileges of relationships with The People of Virginia.

IN STRENGTH SISTAH ASSATA By William Thorpe

 

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Sistah Assata Shakur passed today, 9/25/25 in Cuba. She had been living in Cuba, granted asylum, due to criminal charges from The United States. On accusations of criminal violations, what I say and what the only relevant arbiter of our human deeds, HISTORY says is this: Whatever Sistah Assata Shakur's (also formerly known under the enslaved name, Joanne Chesimard) crimes were, it wasn't any greater than the collective individual crimes and criminality that built and constructed these United States and yes the two faced hypocrisy of our Social Contract can accuse and charge her with criminal violations, causing her to flee to Cuba, just as Anglo-Saxons fled to these Native American lands of North America, under exact circumstances and conditions as Assatas'. The only indictment and charge to be examined is that of our human conditional relations, which her world view and Politics focused and breathed on, that it causes grief to which we idealistically ascribe to "sin", as some sort of generic surrogacy. Sistah Assata embodies the universalities of Assatas whose names echo in odes, BAYETE SISTAH ASSATA, AVE !!!

THESE ONGOING HUNGER STRIKES AT KONCENTRATION KAMPS RED ONION AND WALLENS RIDGE STATE PRISONS ARE QUESTIONS WE ALREADY HAVE ANSWERS TO, BUT OUR POLITICAL LEADERS, OVER LORDS OF THE VIRGINIA PRISON OFFICIAL ARE ABJECTLY VENAL TO EXACT OVERSIGHT By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Recently Virginia Prisoners confined at KONCENTRATION KAMPS Red Onion and Wallens Ridge State Prisons have made it known to family members and Prison Reform Advocates that, there is an ongoing hunger strike as desperate speech protesting their conditions of imprisonment and treatment at the hands of and the impermissible and lawless behavior of prison officials. So in direct reaction, the Virginia prison official at both KONCENTRATION KAMPS in question responded with another illegal and lawless act, that of cutting off prisoner communication with family, friends and loved ones. In other words The Virginia Department of Corrections responded as all garden variety tyrants do when confronted with protest, it played the incommunicado card, which is repression and repression, which has been abundantly made clear to humanity, that no matter how intense and extreme the repression, it never dissuades, nor stifles protest, because those responsible for the circumstances necessitating protest are ignoring and dismissing the existence of those circumstances. The Virginia Department of Corrections and its Prison Official are not unfamiliar with prisoner protest, some legitimate and valid and others distractive. But the fact of the matter is the prison official has the necessary cognition to distinguish when protest is legitimate and when it isn't, because the Virginia Department of Corrections already has process for protest, which are all the forms of petitioning Government for redress and forms of protest like hunger strikes only occur when those administrative processes respond corruptly by all of the forms of corruption known and perfected by the prison official, for starters dismissing the issues. However there is another character to issues at both KONCENTRATION KAMPS in question. So we primarily have a majority Rural White Prison Official work force doing the work of administering and governing the imprisonment of a predominantly Urban Black and Brown prisoner population and it isn't the fact that the prison officials are White, but the "type" of White, because the prison official at both KONCENTRATION KAMPS in question have an irrational and visceral animus for Urban culture, which is the foundational animator of Prisoners in their care. The Virginia Department of Corrections cannot under the guise of maintaining a prison insult, disrespect, castigate and impugn the entire historicity of the Urbanized Human life, just because members of Urban Society and Culture are imprisoned. Convictions of crimes isn't just a Urban phenomenon, the problem though is a type of Virginia Politics for its own Machiavellian machinations is unwilling to see crime without "othering" it, which then gives permission to the Rural White prison official to for no other reason than, one is imprisoned, deny the humanness of the prisoner, which in turn creates those circumstances of a hunger strike as protest.

ITS OUR TIME By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

The issue isn't about how many different ways we can come up with to state the simple truth, that, imprisonment isn't license to abuse and savage the prisoner. In The Commonwealth of Virginia there are scores of groups and organizations dedicated and devoted to saying just that, petitioning Virginia law makers, filing countless actions in Courts saying the same thing, that imprisonment isn't cause for prison officials to experiment and play out idealistic and sadistic urgings on the Virginia prisoner and despite the fact that "Right and Accountability", are on the side of the People, still the People have a hard time. Once again its that season, Elections, the season and period where the People get to declare their intentions and state what they expect and as it relates to reform of the Virginia Department of Corrections and holding the Virginia Prison Official accountable, this current elections presents the People with the opportunity to do just that vote for reform and accountability of the prison official. What I have to say is this: Virginia Politicians will do what the People tell them to do, not after the elections but because of the elections as such all Virginians who understand and value the necessity for the " No One Is Above The Law" political formulation have to express it to those they're voting for, so there won't be any misrepresentation of what the People mean by holding the Virginia Prison official accountable. All those indignities suffered and endured by family members, loved ones and friends during visitation to Virginia prisons to see loved ones imprisoned at the hands of the prison official cannot be forgotten, instead should be motive force directing Virginians to deliver the message to politicians that their vote is for accountability and reform of Virginia's imprisonment scheme. Despite the fraudulent perception cultivated by a type of political narrative, the relationship between the People and those Elected isn't paternalistic, everything is based on and maintained by terms of the Social Contract and is accessible to all. Vote People for Reform and Accountability of the Virginia Department of Corrections.

CHADWICK DOTSON, DIRECTOR OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND ALLIES THREATS AGAINST PRISONERS AND VIRGINIA PRISON REFORM GROUPS ONLY REINFORCES WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW: THAT VIRGINIA GOVERNANCE UNDER REPUBLICANS IS CORRUPT By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Under the prison policies of Governor Glenn Youngkin and Virginia Republicans these past 3+ years have been revelations of one after the other horror stories confirming the charnel house reality, that is the prisons administered under the Directorate of Chadwick Dotson and the Virginia Department of Corrections. In response beginning with Governor Glenn Youngkin and his Virginia Republican Party apparatus, then Chadwick Dotson Director, and his Department of Corrections apparatchik, what was given to the People of Virginia as accounting became another blow, another nail in the coffin of that long dead requisite "faith and trust", necessary for the governing process in the Commonwealth. To make a long story short, those sworn to uphold the laws, wishes, intentions, ideas and aspirations of the People of Virginia were the ones violating it, suborning it, undermining everything in their unadulterated pursuits of waging war on the Virginia prisoner, just because the Virginia prisoner had the temerity to remind the People of Virginia that, Prison Officials who have been given the privilege to act in the name of the People, executing their wishes of "lawful imprisonment" of duly convicted Virginians, were instead violating those wishes with ad hoc and extra-judicial practices and for all purposes and intent declared themselves by their violations of law and subsequent malbehavior as being above the same law The People of Virginia are subject to,the same People who provide the salaries of beginning with Governor Glenn Youngkin, through Chadwick Dotson on to the lowest on the totem pole Department of Corrections employee. So what we are once again confronted with is that continuum of unoriginal corruption and its desperate refuge, that of issuing threats. Threats and its enactment against the Virginia prisoner by the prison official is par course and business as usual. From contrived and fabricated write ups or infractions, to shipping prisoners to other state prison system, to the recent case of Aubrey McKay and the claim of his death at the hands of Koncentration Kamp Wallens Ridge State Prison officials to the cabalistic collusion by those responsible Virginia justice infrastructure officials in the recent death of Henry Bobilly Gorham Jr. and its medical neglect cause, but as facts state, no Black Person's death which Bobilly was, can since the 15th century honestly be described as "natural causes", which is the narrative the propaganda machinery of Chadwick Dotson and co.spoon fed the Commonwealth. What threats against the exposure of Virginia Department of Corrections misdeeds does and accomplishes is it proves and shows those naive members of the Commonwealth that if, Chadwick Dotson and allies are willing to make threats against members of the Commonwealth who want nothing more than, "equality under law "for all Virginians, then it isn't hard to accept that a complaint or grievance filed by a Virginia prisoner, then given to a prison official to deposit in the mail, according to prison policy never makes it. For too long the despots and petty tyrants among us have wielded the shameless talking point that holding the Virginia prison official accountable is being soft on crime, while the opposite is true, not holding them accountable is the crime.

THE POLITICIZATION OF CRIME By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Yeah People its that season again, Yup in Virginia Elections are right around the corner and crime is back in vogue, meaning it has value as medium towards the end of attaining speculative political power. Now on the issue of criminality and the subsequent deviance, which has always presented itself as a universe of questions, arrayed as an entire range of aspects to be examined beginning with the primitive and its colloquial suppositions and then relatively revealing itself as a mirror reflecting the human condition. What we have come to understand is, its a denominator of interest and its shared nexus with, who benefits. So as we are witnessing in Virginia, those who care the least about the variegated levels and forms of criminality and its deviance are the ones exploiting or excavating value in it for their own specific sets of interest at the expense of its human cost, especially, the human cost. We have always observed and understood this, based on our levels of recognizing what is being played out, from the deliberate and purposeful criminalization of the general life of a type of Virginian and corollarial demographic as the politicization of crime. When we say "politicization of crime", we are speaking of a singular phenomenon, that is only concerned with exploiting crime for other purposes besides, amelioration and remedy. Understanding this distinction is necessary and valuable, because all crime are contextually political. In the sense that a politics is what defines and categorizes law, in otherwards the emergence of a society as for example the Commonwealth of Virginia upon that which it does for its survival or existence, or its political-economy, specifically the politics then establishes those means, forms and manners of interactions, relations and transactions as, Law, because it is the understanding of its techniques or culture. So Virginia, once had the political-economy of the chattel enslavement of Black People, subsequently it developed laws to secure and defend its practice of slavery and its politics reflected this to which as we understand that War as being politics by another name affirmed this with Virginia's Civil War treason.

Politicization of Crime, is the intellectual-liberalism of the exploitation of the generalized fear of and harm of a type of crime at the expense of the purpose and utility of the democratization of the rule of law and its process, in pursuit of attaining political power for certain specific reactionary goals. Critiquing this practice isnt a denial of the harm and destructiveness of crime, instead this critique and its exposure of the existence of the type and nature of the politics that shamelessly politicizes crime is highlighting that corrupting basis that births crime in the first place. Despite the fact that the Commonwealth of Virginia not only theorized against despotism, it practiced its synthesis or resolution by Waring against its antithesis the British King George lll as expressed in the Nations Revolutionary War. It's theorization was again the politicization of crime albeit, in its tyrannical form of an intolerable and corrupted Social Contract sets of relations with the British Colonial masters, which is the same exact dynamic we see at work by those who perennially exploit the criminality and deviance of a type of Virginian and demographic. The politics of politicizing crime and its exploitation is for all practical intent and purposes incapable of implementing those always necessary reforms of Virginia's Justice Infrastructure, the prison system and imprisonment scheme and notwithstanding such, if the center of the Social Contract must hold, if the systemic symptoms and effects of the politicization of crime are not to be pervasively encountered and experienced throughout the Virginia body politic, despite the various euphemisms given such symptoms as feeble and idealistic attempts at camouflaging their source and origins, the People of Virginia have to resoundingly reject the type and form of politics that only focuses on a type of crime at the expense of the crime that not only undermines the rule of law and its "equal under law" democratizing premise, but annihilates the requisite "faith and trust" in the due process terms of Virginia's Social Contract and Accountability.

ON KERRY DOUGHERTY, A BELLOWS LABORING IN STOKING FEAR OF VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS BY EXPLOITING THE MURDER OF LEXIE WALTERS By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

If Kerry Dougherty is concerned with "violent geezers" committing crimes and being in positions to commit crimes, then she need not look any further than the "Oval Office", where one geezer in particular holds Court and not only is he a convicted felon but is in position to commit historic and cataclysmic crimes--which by the way he already has. My intent isn't to engage Kerry Dougherty on the hypocrisy of her point of view but to confront its intellectual liberalism. I BEGIN: Thousands of Virginians die in all sorts of ways each year and I'm sure Kerry Dougherty isn't simply concerned with a type of death, or to add insult to injury suggesting that one humans death is of more significance than another--because that would fly in the face of why we even have Society. Yet that's exactly what Ms. Dougherty's efforts with her recent work "JUST WHAT VIRGINIA DOESN'T NEED.VIOLENT PREDATORS-MURDERERES AND RAPISTS VOMITED BACK INTO SOCIETY FROM PRISON JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE OLD "indicates and pursues.

Deploying the frat house imagery of Prisoners, "vomited back into Society" as Kerry Dougherty does, is a loser and it smells of desperation and the nihilism of her argument. She has nothing to offer save fear of Democrats and the endorsement of the dictatorship of breaking the law. Parole and its process for a type of Virginia prisoner is the law. Invoking the murder and death of Lexie Walters, is that classic strawman maneuver that has nothing to do with the institution of "justice for all". First of all, the spirit and if it is to be found principle of Ms. Dougherty position is, what is undermining Virginia's Social Contract. For starters, the only reason the murder and killing of Lexie Walters is a crime, is because of "law", the same law which parole in Virginia and its process is birthed of. What Kerry Dougherty asserts is a violation of law, in two respects.[1] Ex Post Facto and [2] Bill of Attainder. Ex Post Facto, violation is when newly enacted law is applied retroactively, which is what eligible Virginia prisoners for parole are currently experiencing and Bill of Attainder violation is the spirit of Ms. Dougherty argument. Yes the disgraced and racist ex-governor George Allen abolished parole under the guise of "Public Safety", which we knew was only a political stunt to secure the electoral supremacy of Republicans and is borne out because here we are 30 years later with Republicans singing the same ole crime song. The fact is Virginia Republicans could care less about crime or they wouldn't foster it, nurture it and inculcate is as the standard of business. Breaking the Law under the double speak of " law and order" only speaks to what is thought of the citizenry--the disdain and contempt had for the People of Virginia and we see all of its shades and nuances in Ms. Dougherty's work. There are tens of thousands of Virginians like Lexi Walters who thankfully are not murdered singularly, but and this is what elevates their predicament over singularities, they are being killed enmasse by policies of Government as in this case the Commonwealth of Virginia. Ms. Dougherty invokes the name of Lexi Walters whose experience as I've indicated earlier is due to the existence and enforcement of "law", because if it was just on the fact that fellow human kills another human, which is homicide, then there are numerous instances where the State of Virginia due to acts of its agents and officials commit homicide, a quick example is the recent killing of Aubrey McKay, a Virginia prisoner who died under the custody of the Virginia prison official at Koncentration Kamp Wallens Ridge State Prison. Virginians are killed enmasse by their sworn Government agents, yet there isn't polemic against the Commonwealth. We only see arguments as Ms. Dougherty's when the objective is in the employ of electoral machinations and I have to ask this, why are Virginia Republicans so hell bent on ruling, they never improve the terms of Virginia's Social Contract?When Ms. Dougherty argues for the violation of Virginia law, as she does in her anti-parole spiel, she ignores that she is promoting the same criminality she claims to detest, under the supposition that she is doing a common good without any hint of the realization that what she has done is a perversion of unimaginable proportions by reducing the killing of a human to the inanity of a crass talking point. A talking point that not only is intellectually liberal and disingenuous but is patently false. But after all is said and done, it sacrifices and betrays the very essence and function of law which as John Adams, besides his human flaws had the intellectual honesty, practicality and fortitude to instruct that we are a Nation of Laws and not Men. It is clearly evident Ms. Dougherty has no understanding of or according to the Machiavellian maxim, (and I paraphrase) the end justifying the means, willing to compromise the faith and trust, law provides the Citizenry and Polity by mocking it in her work, by deploying fear of Virginia Democrats against The People of Virginia. The sentiment imbued in Kerry Dougherty's work is that pathetic miasma our enlightened past and present labor against. It's simple, our dishonest and insidious proclaim so and so is "good" or "evil", while the practical and honest observes, 'apply law and its process'. If Ms. Dougherty with her anti-parole and extra-judicial advocacy assumes omniscience implying, all knowing, then she should understand the social and political need of parole, because there isn't finality in anything of our Human Condition and its Social Contract expression which is relatively and consequently humble enough and cognizant of the fact that our " judgement ", is simply that a process--which in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Law and its Process acknowledges and recognizes such with [1] The Appellate Process and all its vehicles.[2] The Pardon, Clemency and Commutation Process and [3] The Parole and Probation Process. Even in death we find law and its process operating posthumously with Exonerations and Pardons. But Kerry Dougherty and her thought care less about the construction and reform of Social Contract and its terms, instead she behaves as if the exploitation of crime, deviance or some sort of predicate as political tactic is original and novel.

Now,despite the short term gain it provides those exploiters or adherents to the Kerry "Thought" of the exploitation of fear of [fill in the blank], which in this instance is, Virginia Democrats, its long term impact on Society, due to its undermining medium on The Peoples faith and trust in the "terms" of Social Contract is abjectly and egregiously devastating. Which again its exploiters or adherents to the Kerry "thought" and its underlying and formulating aversion and antipathy to the democratization of due process of law, which that Madisonian thesis of a "more perfect union" anticipates are antithetical to and wouldn't give a flip to. As such which is why and where we encounter the Kerry Dougherty's of our polity embarking on undermining the rule of law and its due process with frat house and sophomoric imagery of prisoners "vomited back into society" if it isn't an insidious calculus, a scare tactic designed to politically exploit the devastating experienced harm of a victim of crime at their moment of helplessness.

THE CORRUPTION OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS IS A PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA PROBLEM By William Thorpe

I BEGIN: Besides the work of the Virginia Prison Official being that of a narrative and what I mean, is this, in order to do what the Virginia prison official does, which is maintain Virginia's Imprisonment scheme, it requires a world view which considering the fact no one person has all the answers to anything more or less, everything, not even theology and its interpretive presumptions as justification. Then the Virginia prison official is as all things, Human Condition, hypothesizing then supposing it in narrative. The thing though is in all other aspect of Life and The Social Contract, no one assumes certitude, but Prison Officials exploit such certitude as professional privilege.  

Yes the history and practice of imprisonment in Virginia exposes itself as having nothing to do with criminality, punishment or justice, which in itself isn't excuse. However and because those who benefit from its variegated and multi purpose, have in effect perfected and mastered the minting of buzzwords as lattice and frame for the perverted construction of a world that is in effect an idea of "purpose" for their existence. So for example we have a redefinition of for starters crime or acts that actually harm and are existential to Virginia's Social Contract, based on their specific and personal interests, which in actuality are at odds with the interest of the common good of The People of Virginia.

Yes, I've described the debacle with The Virginia Department of Corrections as a People of Virginia problem, but I'm not isolating it as the only issue that is Virginia people specific and oriented. Because everything Virginia is a Virginia people problem including the perpetrators and those they subjugate and victimize. My intent isn't to lecture, proclaim or instruct. What I do is present a facet of perspective that some of us might not have or realize, which due to its lack and omission those who perpetrate actual and destructive harm not just on the individual Virginian but the collective of the Commonwealth, not as "they" (to mean the exploiters) would have us realize and understand it, but as it is.

Who amongst us thinks, for example, that Chadwick Dotson, Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections has life figured? Yet he has the presumption from the people of Virginia that he has, because you The People of Virginia gave him dictatorial powers and authority under Virginia Code 53.1-10 to do as he sees fit in treating Virginians entrusted to him as prisoners, implying that he has all the answers, as it concerns human behavior and the idea of Justice and we know that such is folly and unrealistic.

WE CALL ON THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS TO ACTUALLY ENGAGE WITH US THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA IN A PUBLIC FORUM By William Thorpe

Yes The Commonwealth of Virginia has those we elect to represent The People's interest and hold accountable actions by those the People delegate authority to via the myriad of applicable means, which direct engagement by the People is basic and fundamental and irrespective of representative government and governance cannot be ceded and when circumstances arise that require direct engagement with the People of Virginia it must be honored and respected. The Virginia Department of Corrections occupies and provides a specific and unparalleled service within the terms of the Commonwealth's Social Contract.

Okay, despite the prerogatives and privileges given the Virginia Department of Corrections by the People of Virginia along with the intrinsic and implicit benefit of the doubt or deference to its Executive decisions and exclusivity. The Department isn't above reproach and scrutiny and when from all appearances and performances those elected by the People of Virginia to fulfill oversight over the Departments activities and philosophy have in principle and deed, regardless of reasons abrogated the Peoples trust and faith in their ability to do so and in order to maturely realize their responsibilities and obligations as citizens and People of Virginia, on whether to continue on with the nature of The Department or .require a fundamental reform--- The People as motive force of all that is the Commonwealth of Virginia have recourse to demand direct engagement with the Virginia Prison Official whom they have delegated and given the privilege of performing the Social Contract service of imprisoning people. The Virginia Department of Corrections, based on all available evidence has compromised and violated one of the fundamental terms of Social Contract as realized by the Human Condition and its with such recognition the People of Virginia including the Virginia Prisoner exercise the demand of direct engagement with the Department.

Oversight of governance and governmental acts means those The People have entrusted with the responsibility will have that all seeing and watchful eye of what is being done in the name of The People. A review of Court filings in Virginia Courts will show that claims and allegations of reprehensible and unbefitting behavior of The Commonwealth of Virginia have been lodged against the Virginia Prison Official over and over, repeatedly, consistently making the same claims, implying that not only isn't the requisite oversight of the Department of Corrections non existent, but that fundamental, "good moral character ", expectation and requirement of governmental action is ignored.

BLACK'S LAW 2d EDITION, defines "Good Moral Character", like this:1. A pattern of behavior that is consistent with the community's current ethical standard and that shows an absence of deceit or morally reprehensible conduct. 2 A pattern of behavior conforming to a profession's ethical standards and showing an absence of moral turpitude. Now my contention as I present it to the People of Virginia for engagement with The Virginia Department of Corrections and the Prison Official, is simply this the Department as expression of the sovereignty of The People is in complete and comprehensive violation of the "good moral character" behavior of the Virginia Prison Official.

The engagement seeked by the People of Virginia, with The Virginia Department of Corrections is specifically for educational purposes, so the People will be better equipped to vote their interest in the upcoming 2025 Statewide elections. Because the issue isn't about how something is explained away. What is being done to the Virginia prisoner in all it's variegated gradations by the Virginia prison official in the name and under the authority of The People of Virginia is adjudged by that one and only Judge, HISTORY, where the People of The current Commonwealth will either live in infamy for dereliction and complicity with all that the Human Condition struggles against or The People of the Commonwealth will eternally stand as completely realized Humans because they reclaim their authority by correcting the impunity of the Virginia prison official .

REFORM OF VIRGINIA'S IMPRISONMENT SCHEME REQUIRES AND DEMANDS A CORRECT ACCOUNTING OF THE COMMONWEALTH'S HISTORY, TO SHOVE ASIDE THE SOPHISTRY OF IT'S ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL BENEFICIARIES By William Thorpe

I BEGIN: Imprisonment in Virginia as Nationally begun its morph into its present state as a direct result of The Civil War and the Faustian, bargain with the devil, that created The 13th Amendment to the U.S Constitution and its "except as punishment for crime whereof the party shall having been duly convicted" clause or should be correctly described as that back door back into slavery and the nullification of all that the Civil War stated. Because the Civil War was about the destruction of States Rights to enslave people, but in the process of abolishing slavery legally and politically, that back door of its continuum "shall have been duly convicted" provided those who couldn't see life without slavery, a sliver of opportunity that yes, their political-economy model of unrequited and unremunerated labor would still thrive. So laws were quickly and hurriedly enacted and passed to reenslave the newly freed and liberated enslaved, by entrapment into imprisonment.

Yes its undeniable and inarguable that people, the Human commits monstrous acts and deeds and it isn't my intention with this work to lead you the reader to an example, you can use your own reference point, but what I will point out is the apogee or zenith of monstrous commissions isn't by a private citizen or even groups of private citizens, but without qualification and condition, monstrous acts and deeds are always and I emphasize always committed and perpetrated by a Politics, its economic interest and pursuits under the sovereignty of the citizenry or People under the rule of law and the administration of its process. Virginia, within our National context paved the way for the application of that perfidious back door of reenslavement, which we experience as the Virginia Department of Corrections and its prison system. No one honest person will declare that any Social construct is beyond reform, yet that is the shameless position of those who benefit from the application of, specifically imprisonment in the Commonwealth. Our work is to expose the dishonesty of their arguments and show that notwithstanding the fact that yes "Justice", in whatever civilized form is a necessary component of any mature Social Contract, which the Commonwealth sure as hell claims to be, however we shouldn't become complicit in its perversion, by those who lost the Civil War.

Our work, meaning focus is on reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme, subsequently its conditions and circumstances. As such we must shove aside the misanthropic and degenerate sophistry of its reactionary proponents and their invidious allied elements, by removing whatever veneer they exploit in their labors of distorting the salient and fundamental terms of reform and its demands. The People of the Commonwealth of Virginia fall into any number of categories relative to any necessary reform of aspects and terms of The Social Contract, which the imprisonment scheme and its Justice Infrastructure is a fundamental question. There is that category of holdovers from the pre-Civil War era and its antebellum psychosis, incapable of renouncing and repudiating the intellectual-liberalism of supremacy and its political-economy, as such will execute the most insensate arguments against any hint or push for reform of Virginia imprisonment and independent of political Party affiliation we find them cloaked in all the idealistic thought produced by the Human Condition. Nationalism in all its incarnations, Conservatism and its supremacist delusions, Theocracy and its perpetual hypocrisies and all the other absurdities emanating from the hodgepodge listed above. Historically anti-prison reformers in Virginia have exploited all sorts of gimmicks as means and mechanisms of garnering support.

Opposition to prison reform is easy. All it takes is a visceral evocation of any number of deeds, perpetrated by any of our hapless members of humanity and reactionaries are off to the races with it and the work of reforming Virginia's imprisonment scheme isn't any different. From the stock prison isn't a Holiday Inn, to all the various apologies and excuses given by supporters of the savagery and barbarism of the Virginia prison official while conveniently and insidiously sacrificing the very foundational and fundamental lattice and glue of Virginia's Social Contract and its terms with their reprobate logic. What I mean by, conveniently and insidiously sacrificing the very foundational and fundamental lattice and glue of Virginia's Social Contract, is this: First of all Virginia's Social Contract or the fundamental construction of the Commonwealth of Virginia as a sovereign entity is a work of Law, in other words, Society composes itself then it declares the process as acts of Law, so everything of society or in this case Virginia are materializations of Law. As such, consequently and significantly the imprisonment scheme is its manifestation. The entire prison construct is comprehensively Law.

It isn't my intent to saddle you the reader with formulations of ideas and concepts that are borne on propositions that the World has been explained and our work is to change or reform it. Because these conceptual facts are resolved and undisputed, there isn't an aspect, circumstance or condition that is outside, in this case of Virginia Law, contrary to the sophistry produced by Court rulings, that want to have it both ways. If imprisonment in Virginia is a process of law, if the condition itself is constructed on terms of law then every aspect of its presumptions, by Virginia's Government is under law. However, firstly Virginia prison anti-reformers, understand this fact more comprehensively than the reformers, as such upon its anticipation, the reactionaries or anti-reformes have recharacterized everything about Virginia's pursuit and application of its Justice Infrastructure to achieve the distortion, that the nature, circumstance and condition of imprisonment in the Commonwealth is an ad hoc construct solely up to the dictatorial whim of antebellumnesque suppositions.

We see this clearly in the recharacterization and misappropriation of the descriptive, "Public Safety". Because Virginia reactionaries and their ally anti-prison reformers, have understood that, to maintain their antebellumnesque psychosis, commandeering definitions of Virginia governmental functions and services is a must. In other words it's that political maneuver of defining the opposition, so we see the descriptive, Public Safety applied in ways that have nothing to do with safety. Chuck D of the Group Public Enemy, captured this phenomenon aptly, with his commentary on the function of the 911 service. We all understand 911,to be a governmental service of assistance. Well Chuck D and Flava Flav gave voice to what some of our community members experience with it, when he classically memorialized the observation with the lyric,"911 is a joke in your town",meaning, despite the fact the entire Society contributes to the existence and purpose of the 911 service, it isn't equitably accessed. Which is the same thing with the misappropriation of the definition, Public Safety, deployed by reactionaries and their retrograde allies in their war against the Virginia prisoner by opposing reform of the practices and attitudes of the Virginia Department of Corrections in the administration of its prisons. What we experience is a mindless opposition to the reform of Virginia's imprisonment scheme, without rhyme or reason, which can only be explained by the realization that Virginia's reactionaries are caught, stuck and trapped in a netherworld of pre Civil War Virginia.

VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS AND THE POLITICS OF IMPRISONMENT IN THE COMMONWEALTH by William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

That thing of, "if you can't speak for yourself, someone else will "and its almost a given that, it won't be in your interest, doesn't just apply to the usual suspects, meaning those perennially defined by the exploitive status quo narrative, that means prisoners and the dynamic and history that produces and creates us, but also major Political Partys, like The Democratic Party of Virginia or as I'll use it in this work, Virginia Democrats. Because forever Virginia Democrats have allowed others to define them on issues of imprisonment in The Commonwealth by speaking not necessarily for them but on them and naturally, you guessed it disadvantaging not merely card carrying Democrats, but the entire Social Contract and its integrity because anything and I underscore and emphasize, anything that undermines the faith and trust in the narrative of Virginia's Social Contract, which the maladministration of Virginia's Justice Infrastructure and imprisonment typically highlights, only metastasizes that inevitable rot. I begin: Virginia Democrats notwithstanding the impactful work they, gave the Commonwealth under the leadership of Governor Ralph Northam, by way of certain reforms of Virginia's Justice Infrastructure and imprisonment scheme, seem to be regressing to their habit of allowing others to frame their intentions and define them in ridiculous and frivolous ways as it relates to and concerns imprisonment in the Commonwealth.

Contrary to the propaganda of Virginia's imprisonment scheme, it isn't about justice or punishment or even rehabilitation and as a latest example and simple proof of this is the focus and efforts of Jason Miyares in his position as Attorney General, to scrap a Virginia law that has not only incentivized Virginia prisoner constructive behavior, but ensured that 64.5% of released prisoners didn't reoffend. The law in question was one demanded by the Virginia citizenry, who at least are not burdened with the truth that Virginia's imprisonment scheme is an undeniable, cataclysmic, catastrophic and unmitigated disaster, evidenced by the spectacle and an incredulous one at that of the attorney general denouncing a law that is creating stable citizen behavior of released imprisoned Virginians. Virginia Democrats were pliant accomplices in the Republican speculative work of abolishing parole in the Commonwealth in 1995 which by employing Republican logic, metric and sophistry has been a complete failure, because they still beat the crime drum, expecting us to forget and ignore that abolishing parole was sold as a end all. No one expects a end all, when the question is human behavior and the focus of this work isn't to indulge in its speculation. What I'm getting at is reminding Virginia Democrats that they have a lot and much to say on the terms of Virginia's Social Contract within its imprisonment scheme.

The Politics of Imprisonment in Virginia is simple, its on Virginia Republican terms, meaning they exploit the malbehavior of criminality and deviance and the obvious harm on victims to speculative political power, while braining Virginia Democrats over the head with the invective and slur, "soft on crime", therefore rendering Democrats reform polemic impotent. What is fascinating about this, or rather what the politics of imprisonment reveals is the fear Virginia Democrats harbor over crime as their Achilles heel. Because the opposite is true, Republicans are the ones who support and enable the criminality of impunity by the Virginia prison official. But what Republicans have been able to effectively do is recharacterize what should be considered as crime, what the People of Virginia should focus on as impacting, again the Republican definition of Public Safety, in other words its that classic distraction by the matador with the red cape to the Bull, while concealing the plunging sword. Because the criminality perpetrated by the Virginia prison official destroys faith and trust in Virginia's Social Contract.

First of all Republicans and the Virginia Republican would rather care less about crime, save for the fact its a convenient tool and mechanism to extract votes from the people of Virginia to accomplish their one and only intent, which is crass social recognition and plunder of the accompanying accoutrements of political leadership, because their stated raison d'tre, disqualifies them from any practical and honest contribution to that Madisonian concept and aspiration of a "more perfect union", which is what reform of and introspective examination of aspects of The Social Contract ask of The People, particularly within the apparatus of the Justice Infrastructure and the imprisonment scheme and we already know this, as such we hold The Democratic Party, who at least professes to have an inkling that even if ones "thought" only goes as far as the venality of political vanity, meaning that unwillingness to care about The People, still there has to be some sort of consideration of the subjects and basis of the exploitation, responsible for going along with the distortive narrative on criminal issues lobbed by Virginia Republicans who really have not a care on what is in the best interest of the People of Virginia.

WHAT DOESN'T VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS RUNNING FOR STATE WIDE ELECTIONS IN 2025 GET THAT DOING TIME IN VIRGINIA PRISONS ISN'T OPPORTUNITY FOR PRISON OFFICIALS TO BREAK THE LAW IN THEIR TREATMENT OF PRISONERS ? By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

Look we already know where Virginia Republicans and their National brethren stand on law and its due process--THEY IGNORE AND VIOLATE IT. No one in their right mind would waste time impressing Republicans with the fact that without the law and its processes that they ignore and violate they wouldn't be in the position of violating it. The issue however is with Democrats who at least present an inkling that, they understand that President JOHN ADAMS wasn't a dotard or daft when he reminded us through his compatriots and contemporaries, that the newly constructed and nascently emerging UNITED STATES, was a Nation of "laws and not of men", which is the requisite and necessary "reagent", of constructing forthrightness and even JOHN ADAMS couldn't have fore saw the present condition, where accountability isn't to due process of law, but to men.

Recently Virginia Republican Attorney General Jason Miyares was again in the news hectoring and lecturing Virginia legislators, with his cat nip fascination over Virginia prisoners receiving "good time" or Earned Sentence Credits, which of all that is wrong with The Commonwealth's Social Contract, is his singular focus and he's quoted as saying, "Too many elected officials have decided to use the law as a social experiment rather than as a shield", because his point is, supposedly 35.5% of 7,193 Virginia prisoners released due to the Earned Sentence Credits law reoffended, therefore the law not only is suspect but it renders its proponents vulnerable to that ridiculous, infantile and idealistic Republican critique of "social experiment" or its other formulation popularized by the clay feet of reactionary politics, Newt Gingrich, "social engineering".

Look people this is crazy. Here we have the Attorney General of Virginia, a Constitutional Office, as such is intended to inspire and consequently be forward looking. Yet the current occupant, Jason Miyares is giving us the most insensate of arguments, which quite frankly is indefensible and is only tolerated because of the deference and benefit of the doubt given and accorded the office. We are told that a law which a majority of Virginians voted for because they demanded reform of an imprisonment scheme and condition done in their name and authority, must be scrapped, because Jason Miyares and the "thought" that he represents, is politically at odds with it? And the argument is because 35.5% of Virginians released from prison under the law, supposedly reoffended and you know what let's even ignore context and deal with our Attorney General's argument on its terms, yeah the Jason Miyares vantage, which is if 2,553.15 of 7,193 released prisoners reoffended, it means,4,639.485 didn't and in what world wouldn't that be a cause for celebration?. People think about this 64.5% of prisoners released under a law incentivizing the Virginia prisoner's behavior DIDN'T REOFFEND and our Attorney General Jason Miyares wants to scrap the law ?.

The point I'm making brings me to my central focus, these past 3+ years rule of Republican as Governor of Virginia Glenn Youngkin have been that colloquial, when you think it can't get worse, Virginia Republicans say oh hell yeah we'll make it worse, because who would have thought that we'd see the Virginia prisoner reduced to perdition and it's desperation of self-immolation? and that wasn't beyond the pale enough till the Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections Chadwick Dotson, opened his mouth dismissing the fact that prisoners entrusted to his care where setting themselves on fire, who by the way before assuming the position as Director was Chairman of The Virginia Parole Board and before that was a Circuit Judge of Wise County. I mean in a sane, sensible and incorruptible world we would retrace and review every single decision Chadwick Dotson has ever made in his professional life, because his comments alone on the prisoner self-immolation at Koncentration Kamp Red Onion State Prison are defacto disqualifiers, and aren't Judges supposed to exhibit Solomonic wisdom?. Anyway the point is, in light of all of this sword of Damocles savagery and barbarism hanging over Virginia Republicans and their prison policies, Virginia Democrats running for Statewide and Local Elections in November have revealed themselves, despite the fact that during their last ascension to the reins of Virginia Governance and Government, they accomplished significant prison reforms, incapable of saying what all rule of law and its due process Virginia adherent understand, which is The Virginia Department of Corrections is corrupt and begs for an accounting. Which is what these November Elections anticipate.

BESIDES THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, THE ONES WE HOLD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BARBARIC AND CRIMINAL HEALTH CARE GIVEN THE VIRGINIA PRISONER ARE THE TRADE GROUPS AND ASSOCIATIONS OF HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only

The Hippocratic Oath exist for a reason, it is the measure and standard of the professional behavior of Doctors and Medical workers. It doesn't have sub paragraphs or categorys exempting prisoners, more specifically relating to this work, the Virginia Prisoner, from its unqualified obligation and responsibility of providing medical care. However time and time, again and again, what we experience and know from the existence of exhaustive examples of the compromising and violative nature, type and circumstances of medical care and treatment allowed the Virginia prisoner is the shameful betrayal of the unchallenged requirement of the Hippocratic Oath, by members of Virginia's medical professional and health care community, who are unconditionally accorded and given respectability and its concordant, benefit of the doubt by The People of The Commonwealth of Virginia, besides their professional existence but even more note worthy, their existence as private persons. I begin: Henry "Bobilly" Gorham Jr., a Virginia prisoner who recently died at The Greensville Correctional Center after being continuously imprisoned over a mind boggling and obscenely unfathomably, unimaginably 50+ years in Virginia's cages, of the ridiculous claims of pancreatic and liver cancer as "natural causes", which I chastised in an earlier work that no Black Person ever since the impact of slavery and colonialism, has died of natural causes and Bobilly was a Black Man, then we are confronted with the issue The People of The Commonwealth avert their scrutiny from, which is, the legality construct of imprisonment requires accountability of its every single aspect, beginning with, NO VIRGINIAN IS SENT TO PRISON TO DIE.

When The People of Virginia exercise their organized violence of detaining and confining a Virginian in prison under due process of law for a set amount of time, practically there isn't under law the presumption that the natural course of events of the human existence are corollary with the imprisonment, because human existence is a confluence and congruence of interacting circumstances, sets of relations that do not exist independent of each other and the characterization loss of liberty due to imprisonment isn't able under law to legitimately account for, unless we accept that the detention and confinement of imprisonment despite process of law is still and relatively an arbitrary and ad hoc enterprise. Because if the State of Virginia which is The People are not generally and specifically responsible and accountable for the fact that a sovereign distinct individual human being, and by all honest metrics, there isn't, such a recognition and the acceptance, notwithstanding the state of being subject to the compulsion and coercive fiat of the organized violence of Virginia's Social Contract and imprisonment, that the conditions and the very nature of the imprisonment, not only is existing in a netherworld of selective responsibilities, but is making a mockery of the notion that the detention and confinement is not only lawful but just.

Henry "Bobilly" Gorham isn't the first Virginia prisoner to die on the betrayal of the Hippocratic Oath by Virginia's medical community, nor is he the first of those I was in solidarity with in the trenches of Virginia's hell holes. Bobilly's death and contrary to the crass hatred of Virginia's reactionaries, his immortalization, put in stark and clear relief, the intrinsic and incipient corruption of The People of Virginia's desire to exact accountability selectively, while unwilling and quite frankly simply incapable of demanding the same accountability from its institutions and those it privileges. First of all the existence of Bobilly and all the contemporary and to come Bobilly's make a mockery of the mythology Virginia's establishment recount to the implacability of facts and their revisionist impermeability. So Virginia can say it imprisoned Bobilly to his death for over 50+years and that ringing "the emperor has no clothes" voice will in perpetuity resound, 'at the expense of accountability'. Which is what Virginia's medical establishment has shamelessly sacrificed by being complicit with the unaccountable and ad hoc practices of the Virginia prison official, pursuing the idealistic impulses of the people of Virginia and the as I have presented, outside of law conditions of imprisonment. We do not ask Virginia's medical community to defend or apologize for imprisonment, but what we indict the community of, is, its cravenness and the accompanying complicity, when it sacrifices its morality and ethics at the behest of prison officials who clearly, not only are not sympathetic to the Hippocratic Oath but could care less about it. The only question before the Virginia medical community is, on whose terms?

LUCA POWELL OF RICHMOND TIMES TOLD US THAT THE DEAD AND IMMORTAL HENRY "BOBILLY" GORHAM WAS INVOLVED IN A MECKLENBURG INCIDENT, WELL IT NEVER HAPPENED By William Thorpe

Image Kevin Jeans

In the recent Richmond Times piece: HENRY GORHAM JR.WHO FOUGHT DECADES FOR PAROLE DIES AT GREENSVILLE PRISON by Luca Powell, we are told that Henry "Bobilly" Gorham was sentenced to 40 years additional time in prison by a Richmond Judge for his involvement in a 1985 Mecklenburg escape incident that included the Briley Brothers. Then further in the Powell article giving a narrative of the odious and suspicious circumstances of the rescind of the 2021 vote by Virginia Parole Board members KEMBA PRADIA and TONYA CHAPMAN, to grant Henry "Bobilly" Gorham parole, we are introduced to the Mecklenburg incident as qualifier for the reversal of vote to parole Bobilly. I write to state this: The Mecklenburg escape of 6 Virginia death row prisoners happened on May 31st,1984 and they were Earl Clanton, Peterson, Lem Tuggle, Jones, Linwood and James Briley. The escape happened from Building-1, which held death row, solitary confinement and orientation. Bobilly wasn't in Building-1, on the night of the escape, May 31st,1984, he was in B-pod of Building-5. I, was in A-pod of Building-1, the night of the escape doing 30 days isolation or punitive solitary confinement.

There are a couple of disturbing, elements with Powell's article. Firstly on the surface it seems the article is conveying the fact, The Virginia Parole Board violated its own procedures and Bobilly's parole advocate Karen Morrison clearly says as much which is affirmed by the cavalier dismissal given the revelation by the current Chair of The Parole Board, Patricia West. Secondly the article treats Bobilly's cancer as if The Virginia Department of Corrections barbaric history of prisoner medical neglect isn't the one and only culprit responsible. Then the most disturbing thrust of Powell's work, which I started this work with, is the conflation and it's disqualifying inference with Mecklenburg's 1984 death row escape as apology and quasi justification for the rescinding of Bobilly's 2021 vote by the above named Board members, to grant parole. Fourthly Virginia's Parole Board is a legally constituted exercise of The Commonwealth's Political authority, hence assuming the necessary responsibilities and convention. As such Patricia West whether in her professional or the more dubious, private existence is without authority to opine on a suspect but "legal" action by parole board members, whether current or former. The comments by Ms. West in Luca Powell's article are crass heresay and doesn't in any form, manner shed light on and give and provide The People of Virginia, who are responsible for Henry "Bobilly" Gorham's death, its requisite accounting. Because the imprisonment and detention of Bobilly by The People of Virginia wasn't a sanction and authority of death. Simply put he wasn't sent to prison to die. There was nothing "natural causes" about Bobilly's death as Powell's deflective article summarily declares. The idea and its practice that a Virginian can be imprisoned under and by the authority of The People of The Commonwealth of Virginia and then killed due to extra-judicial and ad hoc practices by the Virginia prison official tasked with the imprisonment is outside of law and is murder. This is the circumstance of Henry Bobilly Gorham's death and our speech to Luca Powell and The Richmond Times is lend your prodigious voice to that of its investigation.

We call for an investigation into the handling of Bobilly's parole process, the type, nature and sort of information used by The Parole Board and the fact that there obviously was a collusion and conspiracy that resulted in Board members KEMBA PRADIA and TONYA CHAPMAN second guessing their initial judgement to grant Henry "Bobilly" Gorham parole. For one the reason given in the hearsay comments by Patricia West, for the parole vote reversal, [ his, "extensive criminal record "and that he needed a "longer period of stable adjustment"] is an insult to The People of Virginia, who are accountable for the corrupt convergence resulting in Bobilly's death. First of all and this provides us the opportunity to actually get at the parole debate. Parole as part of the criminal justice system is also an aspect of the pardon, clemency and commutation expressions of the Politics or Law and its terms of the Social Contract. So for example we all experienced Donald Trump authorize the reversals of the convictions and release from imprisonment of those who stormed the U.S Congress on January 6th, because their convictions and imprisonment ran counter and at odds with the politics he embodied, say what you will about it, it reveals and is testament to the nature of Law or the terms of a Social Contract. I've went into this to expose the fraud and corruption of the THOUGHT, wielded by The Virginia Parole Board, with its "extensive criminal record" and ."longer period of stable adjustment", verbiage when, vindictively, for reasons only known to them, they act contrary to the very reason of the existence of parole as a practical part of imprisonment. Bobiilly's case and situation present this and all that is corrupt with the process in all its odious impunity. When John Adams anticipated Lincolns' at Gettysburg, "of the people, by the people and for the people", with his fore runner, "a government of law and not of men", he clearly saw, envisioned and had in mind actions by minds and hearts of the Patricia West's of the world and the petty dictatorship of the, for example, The Virginia Parole Board. Because the only lesson our Virginia version of the Social Contract instructs the Human Condition is, disassembleged, distortion, reduction, perversion and duplicity.

I DEDICATE THIS SONG, CRAZY BALDHEAD by BOB MARLEY TO THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND ITS ENABLER POLITICIAN ALLIES By William Thorpe

Crazy Baldhead / Running Away (Live At The Rainbow 4th June 1977)

Recently Henry "Bobilly" Gorham Jr. died imprisoned under the jurisdiction and custody of The Commonwealth of Virginia and its Department of Corrections. The death was accounted for as "natural causes". I begin: No Black Person, not the Uncle Toms, and collaborators in these United States or anywhere in the World, dies of "natural causes", not since Arabs, Persians and Europeans decided that subjugating and exploiting Black People would be the basis of their political-economy and the re-creating of their existence. No amount of Thomas Sowell's intellectual-liberalism and its sophistic apologies, distorts this. This work isn't about mocking Thomas Sowell and his in-perpetuity servility, rather its to declare to those Virginia reactionaries and their war on the Virginia Prisoner, that HENRY "BOBILLY" GORHAM, MALIK AKBAR "CUP CAKE"WAKIL, AHOTO TAYSIR MULAZIM, RICO FREDERICK "DOC" HOLIDAY, ROSCOE "SCOE" LAWSON. DONALD "TREE" SUTHERLAND and all THE LEGENDS are IMMORTAL on their own terms, which is what will always be breathed on. BAYETE and AVE! MORITURI TE SALUTANT.
