?Copaganda? is a special kind of propaganda employed by police, prosecutors, and news media. It stokes fear of police-recorded crime and distorts society?s responses to it. As the United States incarcerates five times more people per capita than it did in 1970?despite record low crime rates?a sprawling and profitable punishment bureaucracy spends a lot of time and money to manipulate what we think that bureaucracy does and why.
Copaganda is all around us. When you hear on the radio that crime is up when it?s actually down?that?s copaganda. When your local TV station obsessively focuses on shoplifting by poor people while ignoring crimes of wage theft, tax evasion, and environmental pollution that harm far more people?that?s copaganda. When you hear on your daily podcast that there is a ?shortage? of prison guards rather than too many people in prison?that?s copaganda. When your newspaper quotes an ?expert? saying that more money for police, prosecutors, and prisons is the answer to violence despite scientific evidence to the contrary?that?s copaganda.

The proceeds from this campaign will go to Civil Rights Corps.
Civil Rights Corps is dedicated to challenging systemic injustices and to building a society that promotes equality and freedom for all human beings. We engage in innovative civil rights litigation, as well as advocacy, narrative, and public education work to re-sensitize the legal system and our culture to the everyday violence that characterizes the punishment bureaucracy in the United States. Our work supports and shifts power to social movements, including those led by people who are most impacted by systemic injustice so that they can build power to create structural change.
CRC is tireless in our pursuit of justice and fearless in enforcing constitutional rights. But with the increased attacks on nonprofits, our work is becoming more difficult ? we need your support!
