    Yep. The 13th amendment didn’t abolish slavery like we’re taught in schools, but made it so you could be legally enslaved as a punishment for committing crimes. They then just happened to make shit like “walking around at night while black” or “being unemployed and black” crimes that they could imprison you for and make you a slave again.
