Is Privatization Eroding Our Civil Liberties? Privatizing prisons is eroding our human rights and civil liberties. GEO, a large private prison company, is profiting from the incarceration of people from our community. GEO has financed efforts to criminalize immigrants through laws like those passed in Arizona and Georgia, and immigrants are not alone: communities of color, working class people and youth face higher incarceration rates in Colorado. You’re invited to attend the second of five forums, The State of Colorado: What’s for Sale?, hosted by 9to5 and the Colorado Progressive Coalition, to discuss the impacts of privatization in the Pueblo community. At this forum, we will examine how private prisons are profiting from people’s misery supported by our tax dollars and what we can do to stop the wholesale of Colorado’s publicly funded services.
