Incarcerated Labor: A Hellish Interview of Prison Labor Activst Azzurra Crispino
by our friends at This Is Hell Radio
Prison labor activist Azzurra Crispino explains how a nation-wide prison work stoppage revealed mass incarceration's large-scale exploitation of incarcerated labor, and the brutal lengths the state will go to protect its interests - and calls for the public to embrace love in the face of fear, and humanizing prisoners as a starting point on the road to prison abolition.
