On today’s show:

First up Wanda Bertram from the Prison Policy Initiative joins the show to talk about what we dont know and what we think we know about mass incarceration. Wanda shares some stats and facts that youll never hear on corporate media, and debunks myths that betray our propagandized thinking.

Next up, MiDian Shofner sits down to unpack antiracism, abolition, and reframing what an expert is when it comes to building alternatives to our cruel system. MiDian calls on us to linger in the reality of what this country really is, who we are, and where to look for solutions that benefit the people.
