Description: A convict speaks: 'Yeah, sure, I've murdered, raped and maimed your love ones. But, hey, no one's perfect. That's just me. Every day I spend in prison impedes my ability to be myself' Commentary from the artist reads "In a paper titled 'A Punitive Society', Victoria University criminology Professor John Pratt has attacked New Zealand's continually rising imprisonment rate and what he terms 'penal populism' around crime. I think that even prisoners know who is doing 'wrong' and it's not the system. It's stunning how little discussed this issue is in the media." Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
