This episode looks at how people in Canada's prisons are affected by COVID-19, and the movement for decarceration. Lawyer Yavar Hameed talks about how COVID-19 put a spotlight on prison conditions. Anti-Carceral Group member Ted Rutland talks about the recent death of Robert Langevin -- who had been awaiting trial in a Montreal prison -- and the broader health crisis in provincial and federal prisons across Quebec and Canada.
