Im a criminal .

Michelle Alexander, has a point to make she decided to get readers attention by making an article named Im a criminal and so are you. The point of this article is to see and reply to the fact f fugitives being treated unfairly. As she discusses her opinion she's really open with the readers, she says most of us have commited crimes that are very minor from j-walking, to speeding, drinking underage or even smoking pot. She goes even deeper by saying President Obama doesnt consider himself as a criminal, he should though she says. He said he used illegal drugs in his college days in fact he stated used lots of them.

I think this article had a powerful meaning to it, i agree with the fact that all criminals are treated unfairly when they are realeased from prison. They get treated as if they did something very bad as killing someone when they only happen to be incarcerted for stealing, or being in a simple fight this could cost them a a job, unemployment, and there life. certain places have a three strike policy where you can do the most simple crimes and be convicted for cases as murder.
