I understand how you feel so much :( It's hard seeing what looks like mass insanity and everyone around you seems to be afraid or unwilling to speak to basic truth. I've seen it in friends and family. It hurts most when women who claim to be feminists don't care about female prisoners at all. Like, they don't give ANY consideration to their safety, just tell me that it's a "tiny issue and doesn't matter."

I don't have any advice really about your friend, or I'd take it myself. All I can say is that I feel the same way, and I trust that a lot of other people do too. Try to hold on to that, and reach as many people as you can.
