Like the majority of Americans, I have an immediate family member locked up behind bars. My dad is in prison & at the age of 75, he is high risk for the virus. If we forget about incarcerated people we’ll lose to the virus and we’ll lose ourselves.https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-local-correspondents/chesa-boudin-on-his-incarcerated-father-and-the-threat-of-the-coronavirus-in-prisons …
LOL this study defines "incarcerated" as anyone who's ever spent a single night in jail. I.e. most of those are DUI's that led to a plea bargain w/ probation. Take those out of the equation and the share of Americans with ACTUAL incarcerated family members is probably like 5%.
