The massive protests at Delaney Hall didn't come out of nowhere — people showed up in solidarity with those detained inside, who are on an ongoing labor and hunger strike to protest inhumane living conditions and demand their release. The New Jersey private detention facility is run by for-profit company GEO Group, which relies on our tax dollars going to fill their cells, then keeps the profits they make for themselves. GEO Group made $254 million in profits last year, a 700% increase from the year before. Delaney Hall alone is expected to generate $60 million in revenue each year.
