Riverside Movie Showing: System Failure (original) (raw)

System Failure:
Violence, Abuse and Neglect in the California Youth Authority

By the Books Not Bars project of The Ella Baker Center for
Human Rights and WITNESS

is a documentary that exposes the horrific conditions and
human rights violations endemic of the California Youth
Authority, one of the largest youth correctional agencies in
the United States. “System Failure” calls for the closure of
CYA’s eight prison facilities to be replaced with regional
rehabilitation centers and local community based
alternatives.
