Trump has sent hundreds of people to El Salvador's CECOT for indefinite detention, without charge, trial or sentence. DHS has dismissed dozens of their immigration cases in absentia: "essentially rid itself of its opposing party," an immigration judge wrote recently:

My latest piece for @teenvogue.com delves into the horrific story of popular skincare ingredient Retin-A.

Before Retin-A was approved by the FDA in 1971, it had been tested on hundreds of incarcerated Black people in Philadelphia, without their informed consent. The survivors still bear the scars.
The miraculous wrinkle-erasing, acne-fighting cream, is the result of decades of horrifying medical abuse.
The Horrifying History Behind a Beloved Skin-Care Ingredient
Retin-A was developed through tests on incarcerated people.

2. Blame it on a target group
3. Commence monitoring
4. Deploy droves of security apparatuses
5. $ Demand spikes for containment
6. Imprisonment through prisons & detention
