Author Description

My Califa's Rehab Rangers booking number is YA-65544; I will never forget it. This is a first-hand narration of growing in the 1980's and 1990's around criminally infested streets of Los Diablos County, Califas. This autobiography describes a gang initiation, drug involvement, and twenty years of arrests for various low-level non-violent crimes. It is an adventurous entourage through police precincts and juvenile hall institutions leading to Los Diablos' dreadful Twin Titans Corrective Facilities, including Califa's Rehab Rangers. Eventually, we will visit the ever-controversial Immigration and Child Endowments' holding camps tossing out legal and illegal immigrants with lifetime deportations ignoring all American-raised families. Part memoir, part inspiration-total human institutionalization and dehumanization, uncut. In addition, we will explore human life complexities within today's state-of-the-art prisons and we will see men coping for survival with only their essential necessities to strive. Moreover, questions will abound about our innate free will, that is, are we indeed free from Big Brother? Is the separation of migrant families legal? This story may also serve as an academic reference to our technical legality of incarceration-and once inside, what are our constitutions protecting prisoners' rights, or should they have any legal protections whatsoever. Indeed, we are forever cognizant that not everything under our sun is a ray of hope for every man; therefore, our daily challenge is to withhold those glorious constitutions that grant us universal liberty of choice. At our day's end, literature is mind's liberty.
