The Georgia Governor's Mansion is staffed by slaves they dress in 'normal' clothes, including a butler's tux, so most people have no idea.

This is FUCKED UP.

It looks like this also happens in Lousiana and Arkansas.
Hillary Clinton took flack for talking about prisoner details in the governor's mansion in Arkansas in her book "It Takes a Village"

Another note I did forget to mention:
This is all made legal by the 13th amendment. Don't believe me, just google it.

I'm not promoting shit on a thread like this except support all charities that are devoted to getting Black prisoners released because of shit like this, since the majority of the prisoners in the states that do this are Black.
Black Lives Matter.
