#13: Between Ex-Inmates (Chandra Bozelko)

Join me for a chat with author, poet, activist and ex-inmate Chandra Bozelko about all things prison. Our inside views of the prison-industrial complex gave us both a lot of insight into criminal "corrections." And as inmate-workers who both wiggled our way up the short ladder of prison labor, we had lots to talk about.

We also discussed the way power works in prison, the nature of change in a system designed to prevent it, and the double-edged sword of attempting to reform prison labor.

28 First Step + SRCA

Josh discusses the recent compromise promising a combination of the First Step Act with the best parts of the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act.

You can read our most recent Orange Is the New Black Recap or look back through all of the recaps.

Kathy Morse was one of the inmates featured in the Bill Moyers documentary "Rikers: Am American Jail."

Our original First Step Act episode of this podcast was Episode 18 and featured Ames Grawert of the Brennan Center, Jessica Jackson Sloan of Cut 50, and Jason Pye of FreedomWorks.

Janie and Buzz founded the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan.

The President and House and Senate Leadership moved recently to combine the First Step Act and Chuck Grassley's Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act.

In case you forgot, Prisons and Jails, as currently constructed don't make us safer.

You can read the different sections of the First Step Act to see why Jeff Sessions is not given unprecedented or unaccountable power.

Recently, the Brennan Center for Justice, a former opponent has indicated that they are likely to support the new compromise legislation.

Distance matters and this article is a good summary of the evidence for why visitation and distance are critical to better prisoner outcomes.

The Mandatory Minimums quote came from this great article by Erik Luna.

The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act included new mandatory minimums.

The Department of Justice Letter opposing the First Step Act was almost as shocking as Senator Grassley's response. My friend Jason Pye and his co-worker Sarah Anderson at FreedomWorks wrote a very detailed response to the DOJ letter.

Here is a great summary of the problems with electronic monitoring.

I do not think that John Pfaff has written an article about privatization but I have had many conversations about this issue on Twitter.
