In this article created by Jocelyn Simonson, it talks about 24 grassroots and activist of racial justice organizations have been fundraising money to pay bail for mothers on Mother’s day. These organization’s purpose of helping mothers is because they want to end the mass incarceration of women and minorities. The women would all tell their experiences of why they got put in jail and expose the truth that they are incarcerated because of their gender and color. These efforts are to expose the unfairness in the criminal justice system regarding wealth and race and gender. Jennifer Simonson is for this effort because she had been studying the bail system and had seen that the efforts of the organizations are powerful because they see it as unfair to the poor have to pay bail that they can’t afford. Organizations pay for the mother’s bail and question the reasons of why bail was imposed on the person and judges believe that it depends on the harm the person might do to the community, but the organizations believe that the public would not want to be the basis of someone’s bail. This resistance would help build the community to become stronger and more resistant to the status quo on the bail system. Jennifer Simmosin is against the bail system and racial injustice. She has been studying community bail funds, so it leads to believe that she is supportive of their causes to pay the bail of mothers.

In this Article written by a californian writer, the author is explaining the current situation of Joseph Warren. Joseph Warren is facing charges that make him stay in jail because he can’t pay the bail imposed on him. He is losing everything in his life for being in jail. The author then proceeds to tell of a Tiffany Li’s criminal charges and bail and how she had payed for it because of her riches. This is to imply that there is injustice in the system because the clear difference between rich and poor is shown. While the rich are able to afford their bail, the poor can’t be able to afford the bail, regardless of the criminal charges. Sam Levin shows that he is for the people because he believes that it is unfair for the poor to pay bail that is excessive for them. California is known to have Libertarian and green parties who support social justice, so this likely leads to believe that Sam Levin is a libertarian or a green party member. He doesn’t appreciate that this rich and poor difference in the bail system is unfair to the poor.
