I've been to prison for drugs and I get a lot of tickets since I came home. I've been a slave. I see what they're doing and I want to help our people. Something has to give.

So what about your situation do you think would have been different by taking that phrase out of the 13 Amendment?

I would have been able to spend my time saving money to start a life when I get released instead of coming home penniless. I used to teach a GED math class for $42 a month when I was in prison. Don't you think an accredited teacher should have made a living wage to teach that class? I was the youngest kid in the room, the only white guy, and I was in front of the white board running everything.
