IN YOU FACE PRESENTS:
THE WALK TO WASHINGTON
In Your Face has been purposed to dispel the popular misconceptions, along with bringing about the awareness and 'true' education regarding the Prison Industry, the Prison Business.
The Walk to Washington's purpose is to spread awareness on a larger scale; causing people to look, think and then take action.
The W2W has a purpose of sending a message to the masses and our loved ones incarcerated a like that we haven't forgotten about the oppressed housed behind the prison walls and that we too are aware of the 'true' agenda of the Prison Industry.
Our purpose is to be the light, as well as, shed the light in and on a place so dark.
Our mission is to fulfill our purpose.
We look forward to you joining us!!!!

In Your Face!!!!
'In Your Face' has lived in the heart of Sheneese Starr for over 4 years now, however the movement didn't begin to move until she was directly affected by this 'sick' system; specifically the Division of Parole. When her loved one was 'hit' at the board, it didn't take long for her to decide to do something and play a part in not only his release, yet moreso to spread the awareness of this epidemic that plagues so many families. The 'In Your Face' Movement was birthed out of injustice, yet it lives to create justice for so many. The purpose and mission of IYF is to bring about the Awareness of this Prison Industry, this Prison BUSINESS on ALL levels. We believe that until awareness and consciousness takes place, no true change will take place. IYF has been charged to open the eyes and minds of the many whom this plague infects. IYF believes that when it is time to activate and implement change, supporters must be in place in large numbers; it is our duty to make sure our force as great as the one we are revealing. Peace, Unity & Progress
There are many organizations engaged in this struggle and each one is needed COLLECTIVELY for the greater good. 'In Your Face' is a MOVEMENT. The foundation for all change is AWARENESS. This is all IYF have been assigned to do; inspire true awareness for people to in turn re-evaluate and then change their own way of thinking regarding this epidemic. People must first be made aware of the fact that there IS a problem, why it's a problem, how the problem affects them/us and what they/we can do as a body of people - a collective unified force who refuse to be silenced. Until this is done, no true support nor change will take place.
IYF is indeed taking strides toward revealing the New Civil Rights Movement. 'In Your Face' is only the beginning in rehabilitating a hurt nation and the sleeping, seemingly careless minds within it! If one cannot FEEL the pain, very few will be moved to remove the pain.
