A study by the self-storage company Storeganise ranks Colorado seventh in the U.S. for retail theft. It should come as no surprise as a Walmart in Aurora announced earlier this month that it is closing due to retail theft. Other locations, such as Central Park in Denver, have locked up an extraordinary amount of their merchandise. Customers now must find clerks to unlock products from cases and put them in a locked box to be unlocked at checkout.

At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
