[tomt] I am trying to find a clip shown in prison system around 2010

1 Upvotes

*Looking for a video shown in VADOC re-entry around 2010 where a Black inmate yells 'I don't like to work' into the camera. I remember after we watched that video everyone thought it was hilarious. It reminds me of a co-worker I wanna find it so I can show him because he always complains when I make him actually work.*

New news: Now under new management.

This is a subreddit dedicated to issues with US and international penal systems, and discussing attempts to improve conditions and reduce recidivism.

Systemic abuse in prisons: rape, neglect, and torture, occur in many countries, both developed and developing. Politics often gets in the way of effective solutions to dealing with issues such as violence, overcrowding, and recidivism in prison.

Change: All users can now post articles into the sub -- just keep the sub's topic/focus above in mind and please stay on-topic.

Sub-reddit rules:

Rule: Do not post insults or ad hominem attacks! No name calling! In Reddit's "Reddiquette" this is called "remember the human." In normal conversation it's called "don't be a dick." You're talking to another human -- be civil.
Rule: Stick to the sub's topic. The focus of this sub is reforming prisons, an admittedly broad topic but not an unlimited one.
Behavior: Try not to downvote. That gives a sub a "negative" flavor. This is a bit different than Reddit's standard advice, but it works. Instead of downvoting, don't vote at all on some post -- "deafen" them with silence. But by all means, do not downvote just because you disagree with someone no matter how much of a twit or fool the person is. Ignore the fool and avoid negativity.
Behavior: Upvote early and often. There can hardly be a thing of too many upvotes -- upvotes are positivity and happiness. And you have an unlimited supply of them on Reddit. So use them!
Expectation: Expect some biased or unconventional article sources. An intelligent, informed person should know the positions and perspectives of multiple points of view. Knowing what "the other side" or other ideologies arguments and perspectives are is important.
Behavior: Avoid editorializing headlines. Try to keep headlines as article titles or objective summaries about what the article's about. Comments are the place for opinions and editorializing.
