The hunger strike against inhumane conditions at California’s state prisons has reportedly ended after three weeks. Thousands of inmates at Pelican Bay and other state prisons resumed their fast last month to demand swifter action on promises to change conditions in long-term solitary confinement they had won to end the first hunger strike in July. Among the new promises, prison officials have vowed to review the cases of all inmates already in isolated units because they have been deemed to have gang ties, not because of their behavior behind bars.
