Carmelo Anthony visited young inmates at Rikers Island

In part 4 of VICE Sports' Stay Melo series, we enter the halls of New York's infamous Rikers Island.

This series has been fantastic to keep up with. I absolutely advise you to check out parts one, two and three. In this installment, Carmelo visited young inmates at Rikers Island and took a little while to speak with them and let them feel heard. He also toured the dormitories but the cameras were forced to shut down.

The wretched treatment of all the inmates at Rikers Island inspired Melo to take a look for himself.
