Evaluate the drafted changes
I really like this page, it’s very interesting! I thought this line in particular was very powerful: “Home to 5% of the global population but 25 percent of its prisoners…” (you may want to italicize that!) The page is also really nicely organized; I like that you started off by introducing the general issue of over-incarceration in the United States and explained how it precedes the pandemic, and you did a great job connecting it to the pandemic. One suggestion I have is combining the “The COVID Prison Project” and “Decarceration Rates During the Pandemic” paragraphs since both generally talk about the state of incarceration during the pandemic. The first paragraph’s title in particular makes it seem like you’re going to speak about an advocacy project, so if it’s mainly just statistics, I would suggest renaming it.

If you have time, maybe you might want to mention other activists, especially if you’re creating a section specific to that topic; if not, you could also rename it so it seems less like a review of multiple activists and more of a focused analysis of one activist. Also, why did you choose to mention Chesa Boudin specifically? Is Boudin the most vocal activist? You may want to add in an sentence explaining that!

Otherwise, great job! This is a really great draft :)
