Continuing our conversation with Mary Heinen McPherson, we gain more insight into the criminalization of the poor, especially of poor women. 80% of women in jails are the primary caretakers of their children, so what happens when moms get locked away for years? The incarceration of women can have immense and far-reaching implications for families and entire communities. Join us in learning from Mary’s personal experiences on what the criminal legal system does to those most vulnerable in our society.
