Men at Red Onion State Prison in Virginia are setting themselves on fire in protest of racism and abuse.
Imprisoned men are setting themselves on fire at the Red Onion State Prison in Virginia, United States. We examine the racism and abuse that leave them feeling they have no other way to protest. Are these issues isolated to Red Onion, or do they reflect a deeper, systemic problem within US prisons?
