Texas prisoners protest against solitary confinement
Dozens of inmates in Texas prisons have been staging a hunger strike for more than a week. They want a change in the way prison officials use indefinite solitary confinement. About 3,100 Texas prisoners are now in solitary and hundreds of them have been held that way for more than a decade. John Yang discussed the strike with Paul Flahive of Texas Public Radio.
