Jay z Takes on the Justice System, To Tackle The Injustice Of America’s Bond System On Father’s Day

r Jay Z has turned to activism for this year’s Father’s Day as he plans to tackle the injustice of America’s Bond System.

Jay Z made this known in a letter to Time in which he penned his truest feelings about the injustices of the judicial system and the exploitative bail industry, saying he would use Father’s day to make a statement about America’s bail bond industry.

Hova writes: “If you’re from neighborhoods like the Brooklyn one I grew up in, if you’re unable to afford a private attorney, then you can be disappeared into our jail system simply because you can’t afford bail.”

Jigga, who recently got inducted into the songwriters Hall of Fame, will be partnering with Southerners of New Ground and Color of change to “bail out fathers who can’t afford the due process our democracy promises,” and give them an opportunity to spend time with their families for Father’s Day.

He goes on to reference tragedies like Kalief Browder and Sandra Bland as a reminder that the inability to provide bail poses a serious threat to those who can’t afford to do so.

“One in 9 black children has an incarcerated parent. Families are forced to take on more debt, often in predatory lending schemes created by bail bond insurers,” he said.

Jay Z and wife Beyonce will soon be delivered of a set of twins, and he joins fellow rap mogul Dr Dre in giving back to society.
