Eleanor Goldfield hosts this week’s program. First up Wanda Bertram from the Prison Policy Initiative joins the show to talk about what we don’t know and what we think we know about mass incarceration. Wanda shares some stats and facts that you’ll never hear on corporate media, and debunks myths that betray our propagandized thinking.
