Privatization in education and prisons serves private profit over racial justice.

Evidence

Private interests have overrun both areas, as privatization drives school reform (and the education of our children is lost in the boisterous battles between teachers’ unions and private interests) and as big business makes enormous profits from the warehousing of black and brown people in prisons. Let’s be clear: private interests or market-based strategies will not solve the problems we face as a country or bring about the kind of society we need. — Eddie S.

Categorization

• ADDENDUM: Supports the ‘sacrifice/corpses’ essay’s themes only loosely since both concern how institutions restructure life chances; more apt is a link to the reader’s interest in how market logics fail racial justice, parallel to Milgrom’s trade-institution analysis inverted.
