Today I am honored to speak with Elizabeth Hinton and  Elsa Julien Lora about their new book, Harm and Punishment: Incarcerated Writers on Violence and the US Prison. Along with two research assistants, Lora and Hinton pored over hundreds of essays by prisoners, found in the American Prison Writing Archive.  They then selected and organized the essays found in this volume, offering illuminating introductions to each section.Our discussion moves through many topics—the brutal, dehumanizing, and punitive nature of the prison system, the damage it does to lives both inside and outside prison, and the ways prisoners find to survive and offer each other support, despite being pitted against each other. At base, we consider how we, as a society, are “addicted to violence,” and why and how it is crucial to understand that violence can only produce more violence. These essays organically blend personal observations and stories with a deep understanding of the broad, systemic nature of violence.Elizabeth Hinton is one of the nation's leading experts on the roots of mass incarceration and enduring inequality in the United States. The Class of 1954 Professor of History, Black Studies, and Law at Yale University, Hinton serves as the founding director of the Justice for Everybody Movement J4EM, a university-based center focused on promoting public safety through education, research, and coalition-building. At Harvard, she is the founding co-director (with Brandon M. Terry) of the Hutchins Center's Institute on Policing, Incarceration, and Public Safety.  Hinton's groundbreaking books—From the War on Poverty to the War on Crime and America on Fire—were each named New York Times Notable Books and have become essential texts in policy and social justice circles. A sought-after public intellectual, Hinton's commentary appears in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, New York Magazine, The Los Angeles Times and beyond. Her research has been supported by the Carnegie Corporation and the Guggenheim, Mellon, and Ford Foundations. Hinton served on the National Academies of Sciences Committee on Reducing Racial Inequalities in the Criminal Justice System and in 2022 was elected to the American Philosophical Society as one of the youngest members in its history. At J4EM, Hinton is building the infrastructure for a more just and robust democracy—where education is not a privilege, but a cornerstone of public safety.Elsa Julien Lora is a U.S. historian and interdisciplinary scholar whose research focuses on the history of American prisons and the texture and intimacy of family life. A Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Columbia University Society of Fellows, Elsa is at work on her book, Life in Prison: An Intimate History of American Punishment. Her research has been supported by the Mellon Foundation, the American Council of Learned Societies, the Institute for Citizens and Scholars, and the American Society for Legal History. Elsa's writing about race, justice, and family has appeared in the Virginia Quarterly Review, Aperture, and Public Books, and she is currently producing a documentary about her grandmother, boundary-breaking modern dancer Mary Hinkson. She holds a PhD in African and African American Studies from Harvard University and a JD from Yale Law School.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Andy Aitchison (@AndyAitchison.uk) Andy Aitchison is a documentary photographer best known for his long-term exploration of the UK prison system. Since first photographing inside HMP Wandsworth in 2004, he has spent more than two decades documenting life behind bars, gaining rare access to prisons across the country. His work moves beyond stereotypes, portraying prisoners and staff with dignity while revealing the realities of confinement, rehabilitation and institutional life. Aitchison's photographs often focus on work, education and everyday routines, highlighting the humanity of people living and working within the prison estate rather than sensationalising crime. Strict security protocols and ethical considerations, including prisoner consent and restrictions on identifiable images, shape his practice. His photography has supported charities, featured regularly in Inside Time, the UK's national newspaper for prisoners, and formed part of major exhibitions and publications examining Victorian prisons. Andy Aitchison's new book Incarcerated offers a compelling photographic exploration of life behind prison walls, combining striking imagery with human stories. The collection challenges assumptions about incarceration, revealing resilience, vulnerability and the complex realities experienced by people within the UK justice system.

Hayley Winterberg grew up in a family dynamic that afforded her a 'perfect ACEs score', as she shares tongue-in-cheek. It's this sense of humor that helped Hayley tap into her resilience, and eventually, helped her press into post-traumatic growth. But Hayley also points to protective factors in her childhood, too - a grandfather that took her to church every week, a father that encouraged her to get a solid education, opportunities to get involved in projects that focus on equity and meaningful change. Hayley learned young that people can harm; she also learned young that people can be pretty amazing. Hayley also learned how to overachieve - a trauma response that has its superpowers and its pitfalls. On the positive side, Hayley's achiever helped her earn two Master's degrees, buy a home as a single mom, build a career that's included healthcare system transformation, policy development, public advocacy, and today, the role of Chief Housing Officer at HOM. On the less positive side, Hayley has had to learn to observe patterns and behaviors that expose her tendency toward workaholism. She shares her personal and professional journey with candor and lightheartedness. We invite you to listen in.To connect with Hayley: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hayleywinterberg/To learn more about HOM: https://www.hominc.com/our-why/

What happens when we treat hearing as an economic duty, and global tech corporations turn assistive devices into a lifetime commitment?In this episode of The Good Robot, Eleanor Drage sits down with medical anthropologist Michele Friedner (University of Chicago) to discuss her groundbreaking book, Sensory Futures: Deafness and Cochlear Implant Infrastructures in India. Together, they dismantle the normative project of "normalization" and expose the immense, hidden labor required to keep assistive technologies up and running.From the strict boundaries placed on mothers in auditory-verbal therapy sessions to the global shadow economies keeping obsolete devices "on-air," Friedner shares a deeply personal and poignant look at what happens when tech forces a narrowing of the human experience. Ultimately, she points us toward a more beautiful alternative: "fugitive sensing", where multi-sensory care, touch, and love actively resist an ableist failure of the imagination.Reading List:Valuing Deaf Worlds in Urban IndiaDeaf and Incarcerated in the U.S.The Obsolescence IssueFeminist, Queer, CripActivist Affordances: How Disabled People Improvise More Habitable WorldsEdited by: Meibel Dabodabo

In this timely episode, Chris discusses the best ways to avoid becoming a statistic while hiking during desert heat waves. He also points out that the vast majority of people suffering injury and death from extreme heat have little other choice. Migrants, the incarcerated, and outdoor labor all face serious threats from hot weather, with little recourse to protect themselves. That's why state and federal protections for workers and the incarcerated are so crucial. Notable Quotes: "Heat turns minor mistakes into fatal mistakes." "Testosterone is not an electrolyte replacement." Incarcerated people dying from heat injury is a frequent and growing problem that is not tracked in any methodical way." "Hug your dogs."

John Medina's short film, The Cure Complex, explores the epidemic of drug addiction in prison and the systemic failures that perpetuate Substance Use Disorder (SUD) in the prison system. "Recovery is an industry, and industries need customers. Rehabs don't succeed when people move on, they succeed when people stay," says Medina, whose own journey through addiction and incarceration motivated him to be an agent of change. His film highlights the importance of addressing the root causes of substance use — including trauma, poverty and isolation. Nationally, approximately 58% of the US prison population has active SUD. In California, where Medina's film is based, it's 65%. Yet, treatment behind bars is limited, inconsistent and often deadly. Only 15% of those assessed as needing help actually receive it. "True recovery isn't about quitting something, it's about building something,” says Medina. By investing in people, not just prescriptions, we can build more humane and effective pathways to healing addiction and staying clean, so that people can move onto meaningful and productive lives. Sadly, the current system, through ineffective, "evidence-based" practices, actually keeps people dependent on substances from which Big Pharma extracts enormous profit. Medina's raw and touching film uncovers how these profit-driven systems trap individuals in cycles of dependency through fear and control instead of empowering them to rebuild their lives. The film champions new and humane healing models that prioritize promoting self worth and purpose to manifest  healing and dignity. Medina is a proud Film Ambassador with Represent Justice, and The Cure Complex was selected to be one of five Represent Justice films streamed on Tubi to 100 million viewers. Watch The Cure Complex here!Have a Swan Dive to share?

Did you know that 50% of us have a family member or friend who has some kind of criminal record? It’s the unspoken secret not many of us know how to negotiate–largely because of the shame, confusion, and hurt that goes along with it. What happens to the families left behind when someone goes to prison? In this eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Heather Rice-Minus, CEO of Prison Fellowship, to talk about incarceration, shame, second chances, and the transforming power of Jesus. Heather shares powerful stories of hope, restoration, and what it really looks like to walk alongside people impacted by prison. We talk about the misconceptions many Christians have about incarceration, how churches can better support hurting families, and why no one is beyond redemption. This conversation challenged me deeply, and I think it will encourage you, too. And remember, I'd love to connect more on Instagram, where you'll find me at @donnaajones.

Lauren Starnes joins me for a role-reversal conversation where she asks the questions and we go deep on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), childhood trauma, and the nervous system patterns that can follow us into adulthood.We break down what an ACE score actually measures, why trauma is individual, and why the point is never comparison, it's clarity. We connect the dots between early attachment wounds and the adult “protectors” so many of us live with: perfectionism, people pleasing, overgiving, control, and even self-sabotage. If you've ever felt ashamed of how you cope, I want you to hear this: those patterns often started as survival strategies designed to keep you connected and safe.We also talk about burnout and the window of tolerance, plus what it looks like to “grow” your nervous system instead of white-knuckling your way through life. Lauren shares why healing happens best in safe connection, not in isolation, and why practicing small, intentional imperfection can expand capacity over time. I also share why deeper memories can surface as we remove old survival blocks, and why you should never go to those places alone.If this conversation hits close to home, share it with someone you trust, subscribe so you don't miss the next one, and leave a review to help more people find support and hope.

Join Patrick Conley this Good Friday on an epic journey of the 7 Last Words of Jesus with 7 of our top-notch spiritual directors! This show combines all seven episodes on this series of the 7 Last Words into one seamless show! Part 1 Fr. John Eckert joins Patrick for the start of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic, Forgiveness What was he scene of the Crucifixion? How is trust in God the Father shown in this word? (16:20) Jason - I grew up in a tough household. Joined military at 17. Mom had mental illness, dad was a military man and constantly gone. Haven't seen them for years. Fighting with forgiveness and it's a battle on a daily basis. Interested if there's specific scripture or guidance to help. (25:20) Break 1 Who put Jesus on the Cross? (30:56) Linda - Why is it that a parent can forgive their children, but children are unable to forgive and hold onto things and not easily forgive us? (35:33) Jim - I'm at a point where there are family members that have been disrespectful to me and children. Children are older now, but family member favors one over the other because they are the godparent. Prayed about forgiving, confession, adoration, etc. I'm at a point where I don't want anything bad to happen, but don't want to be around them. Is that holding on to a grudge? (40:02) Break 2 (41:20) How is Forgiveness something we can strive for in our lives? Yolie – Is it mandatory to forgive others? Part 2 (48:28) IL – Fr. James Kubicki joins Patrick for the second of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic: Repentance Who was St. Dismas? (56:21) where does the word repentance come from? (1:05:59) Deacon Shawn - I think the comment about conversion vs repentance is tied together. Reading a book. Repentance is a big part of it. Self-reliance on God vs. Surrender. Deeper conversion helps navigate. (1:09:26) Break 1 (1:10:21) Gene - I was in a car accident 15 years ago. Someone was killed in the accident. I was convicted of vehicular homicide. Incarcerated for it. I felt and rationalized that if they weren't in the middle of the highway, this wouldn't have happened. Last 5 years, I've been in repentance in the dark night of the soul. Mourning and not rationalizing now. What is the meaning of the word “today” you will be with me in paradise? (1:24:31) Break 2 Bonnie - Repentance and conviction of the Holy Spirit. Adult children have cut me off. I'm focusing on my part. I can't fix it or fix anybody. The goodness of the holy spirit and that can bring us repentance and help us to surrender to the will of God. Accepting the consequences. (1:29:19) John - My problem was I felt I couldn't be forgiven for the sins I committed. When I repented, it was very difficult. I still struggle. Nicole - Question - speaking about what I've been pondering. I told my friend I don't hold on to any past sins, and I know it's a sin to not accept God's mercy. In my dream last night, I feel something was being revealed from a past sin. Had desire to go to confession. How do I go to priest about it? Wondering if I confessed it. Part 3 (1:36:22) Fr. Joseph Johnson joins Patrick for the third of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic: Mary’s Role at the Cross (1:39:48) What is the context in these words of Jesus from the Cross? What Who does John represent in this scene? (1:49:48) What is Mary’s role in the Passion of our Lord? (1:54:30) Break 1 What are practical ways in which we can share in the passion of Christ? (2:01:40) Jim - My mother is starting to fail. My wife asked who should we pray for as a caregiver. We stopped thinking about the saints and then turned to Jesus on the cross. Jesus found a caregiver for his own mother. Found great consolation. Kurt - Redemptive suffering and joining to Christ on the cross. Very rarely do I hear anyone talking about that. We not only have that opportunity, but for the redemption of the world. We are commanded to that in John 15 and John 13. I give you a new commandment... There's no greater good than to offer suffering for them. (2:10:07) Break 2 How does the prophecy of Simeon play a role in Mary’s heart at the Cross? (2:14:16) what can we expect from the love of Mary and how it helps us in our lives? (2:17:01) Sharon - When my son died. I identified with Mary for release. My son was 50 and died of a rare cancer. The loss was something I knew she understood. Gave me a great deal of help during that time. Michelle - Abortion and aborted children. Great sorrow. I delivered that child into Mary's hands. Part 4 (2:24:40) Msgr. Tom Richter joins Patrick for the fourth of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic, Spiritual Abandonment The Allusions of Control. (2:33:33) Jesus and Psalm 22. (2:46:04) Break 1 (2:46:50) Tom - I've always wondered if Jesus felt because of his humanity we as human would feel abandoned by God. Was that an expression of his human feeling because he was fully human. How can Christ feel he was abandoned? if he were fully human, he would feel that way. Can you explain that? (2:50:50) How Jesus abandoned Himself to God. How can we trust that God still loves us through the challenging times in our life? (3:03:17) Break 2 How can we cultivate Faith in our lives? (3:08:37) Entrusting to God all of those who will be affected by my abandonment. Part 5 (3:12:30) Fr. Dave Heney joins Patrick for the fifth of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic: “I Thirst” How does this word of thirst relate with the Old Testament?

(3:48:43) Break 2 Beatitudes I thirst and drink for riotousness (3:54:42) Madeline - I love this discussion. Years ago, I read the 4th Cup. The new covenant is complete. This really has changed how I look at the Triduum. Richard – Did Jesus say Carry your cross before or after he died on the cross? Part 6 (4:00:20) Fr. Michael Hurley joins Patrick for the sixth of a special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic: “It is Finished” What would have the people heard from these words of Jesus who were there? (4:10:04) What is the deeper meaning of this message. (4:13:16) Robert - I don't understand the debate. it was about his mission on earth. I don't understand the bewilderment. That is what the father had him do. (4:18:40) Break 1 Susan - The Latin being consumatem est...more literally translated to it is consummated. As in he's married to his church. (4:24:06) Timothy -You mentioned Came to save sinners...don't know what that exactly means. How does this connect with the Old Testament and the fourth cup? (4:38:33) Break 2 (4:40:45) The enduring wounds of Jesus even after it is finished. Jesus Shouts, it is Finished! Part 7 (4:48:14) IL – Fr. John Paul Erickson joins Patrick for the last chapter of our special Lenten Series on the 7 Last Words of Jesus – today’s topic: “Total Surrender to God” (4:54:32) What is the connection to the Psalms and this last word of Jesus? (5:03:43) what holds us back from surrendering entirely to the will of the Father? (5:08:04) Break 1 (5:08:51) How do you answer the question of does God really care about me and can I trust Him? (5:16:49) Carol - I'm an associate for an order. I serve worldwide for the sisters from home. I suffer from terminal illness. It's that surrender to God we're all trying to get to. Why does God allow suffering? (5:24:17) Break 2 (5:25:31) Laurie - Husband and I suffered 2 miscarriages. Another born and survived only days. Knowing God had a greater purpose. I figured we'd have 5-6 kids. I worked at a daycare. We adopted two children. God places these things before us and uses us as an instrument. (5:30:20) If we are to experience suffering why should we be faithful Christians? Serenity Prayer

Meet Jesse Crosson, author of The Best Part of Prison, founder of the Second Chancer Foundation, an inspirational voice for second chances, and now a social media influencer. But that wasn't how it all started. At just 18 years old, Jesse's life changed forever after a robbery and shooting led to a 32-year prison sentence. What followed was nearly two dec-ades behind bars, time that could have defined his life in one direction but instead became the foundation for profound personal growth. During his incarceration, Jesse found mentors, discovered the power of reading and writing, earned a college degree, and began reshaping his identity. After serving nearly 19 years, he was granted clemency and released, stepping into a world transformed by technology, opportunity, and responsibility. Today, Jesse uses his lived experience to help others find freedom, not just from incarceration, but from the emotional and mental barriers that hold people back. Through his foundation, public speaking, and widely followed social media platforms, he's found a voice for good, a voice that says, even the hardest obstacles can become opportunities for growth.

What happens when a life shaped by violence, poverty, and abandonment meets consistent love, purpose, and the message of the Gospel? In this powerful episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer sits down with Greg Harris, Executive Director of Counteract International, to explore the realities facing incarcerated youth in Central America—and the transformative work being done to restore their lives. Drawing from his book Counteract: Walking Alongside Incarcerated Youth in Central America from Prison to Purpose, Greg shares firsthand stories of young men and women caught in cycles of crime, broken homes, and gang culture—and how mentorship, faith-based education, and intentional relationships are helping them rewrite their futures. Together, they unpack: The harsh realities of juvenile detention in Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala The “battle within” every young person must face when choosing their path Why relationship—not just programs—is the key to lasting transformation The critical role of faith in restoring identity, dignity, and purpose The high cost of inaction—and why this mission matters now more than ever This conversation is both sobering and deeply hopeful, challenging listeners to reconsider how we see justice, redemption, and our responsibility to the most vulnerable.

What if the fastest way to calm conflict is not defending yourself, but helping the other person feel fully heard? In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Douglas E. Noll, Lawyer-Turned-Peacemaker, who shares the powerful method behind his book De-Escalate: How to Calm an Angry Person in 90 Seconds or Less. Drawing from decades of experience in conflict resolution, neuroscience, and even prison mediation, Doug explains how emotional validation can calm anger faster than logic, rebuttals, or apologies. He also reveals how his work has helped everyone from families and couples to incarcerated individuals and why he believes these skills could help heal deep polarization in society. Key Takeaways:→ Naming emotions helps calm the mind and regain emotional self-control.→ One of the most effective ways to start de-escalating conflict is simply observing how the other person feels. → When emotions flare up, your brain shuts down, removing logic and problem-solving during heated moments. → Apologizing too soon can backfire because people need to feel heard and emotionally understood first.→ Incarcerated individuals have used this model to become mediators and peacemakers. Douglas E. Noll is an acclaimed author, speaker, and mediator. After 22 years as a trial lawyer, he shifted to peacemaking and conflict resolution, helping people settle deep, difficult disputes. Noll teaches Decision Making Under Uncertainty and Conflict as an adjunct professor at the Pepperdine Caruso School of Law, Straus Institute. He earned a law degree from the University of the Pacific McGeorge School of Law and a Master's in Peacemaking and Conflict Studies from Fresno Pacific University. Noll co-founded the Prison of Peace Project, where he trained inmates to become peacemakers in maximum security prisons. Having mediated over 1,500 disputes, he has trained leaders and mediators around the world. Noll is the author of five books, including De-Escalate, and has developed popular online courses. He's also a jazz violinist, pilot, ski instructor, and tai chi master, living in the Sierra Nevada foothills with his wife. Connect With Doug:Website: https://dougnoll.com/podcast/seth-greene/

From our Tupelo, Mississippi community, Miranda Andrews shares a tender and powerful story of growing up without her earthly father after he went to prison when she was in second grade. In the ache of that absence, Miranda wrestled with feelings of rejection, confusion, and longing. Yet even in the pain, she can now see the steady pursuit of the Lord, gently allowing circumstances that would ultimately draw her to Himself and shape her future.   After surrendering her life to Jesus, Miranda experienced what only He can do—turning deep wounds into peace, purpose, and freedom. Her story is a moving reminder that no childhood, no loss, and no season is beyond the reach of God's pursuing love.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.

While doing defense work, Ariel crosses paths with inmate Michael Thompson. Incarcerated for decades on murder charges, she finds him to be soft-spoken, educated, and spiritual. Ariel's intrigued by Thompson's life growing up on an Indian reservation, his claims of being wrongfully convicted, his time leading the brutal Aryan Brotherhood prison gang, and his quest for enlightenment. He dispenses wisdom as he recounts his violent past and deeds done to atone for them. But prosecutor Heather Brown finds Thompson's stories to be false or exaggerated, tales that shift as they suit his purpose. Whereas Ariel sees a reformed man worthy of a second chance, Heather believes him to be a slippery con artist intent on talking his way out of prison. In the podcast “Love + Radio: Blood Memory,” host Nick van der Kolk explores Thompson's life in a true crime series presented largely without narration. Through extensive interviews, it allows Thompson to tell his own life story, leaving it for the listener to decide whether he's credible.

Incarcerated men defy the odds to expose a cover-up. In 2019, filmmakers visit an Alabama prison to film a revival meeting. Off camera, incarcerated men whisper a message: terrible things are going on here that are being kept secret from the public. This sparks an immersive 6-year investigation to discover the reality behind the walls of what the film calls “the nation's deadliest prison system.”With unprecedented direct access, the filmmakers learn from incarcerated men about a suspicious and violent death. The story unfolds in real time, revealing it isn't an isolated incident, and that the official version appears far from the truth. What follows is a shocking story of brutality, corruption, and a system in collapse. As the men fight for their own survival, they embark on a campaign of resistance, against all odds.Join us for a screening of the Oscar-nominated new documentary Alabama Solution, followed by a Q&A with director and producer Andrew Jarecki  This program contains EXPLICIT language.

What if the people best suited to transform the justice system are the ones who know what it's like to live inside of it? In prisons across the country, incarcerated organizers have long fought for policy change, but they’ve rarely had the resources to communicate with the outside world and stay up-to-date on current events. In this episode, host Maya Rupert speaks with James King, Director of Programs at the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, about how the organization is changing that through their Inside/Outside Policy Fellowship. Now in its fifth year, the program pairs incarcerated Inside Fellows with formerly incarcerated Outside Fellows to lead system reform together. In working to shape campaigns like the California Racial Justice Act, and ensuring that incarcerated fellows are fairly compensated for their work, Fellows are transforming both the system and their own lives. This episode is created in partnership with Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Philanthropies.

Harding's Landslide and the Imprisoned Socialist — David Pietrusza — Socialist candidate Eugene Debsconducted his presidential campaign from Atlanta Penitentiary, where he was incarcerated for speaking against American participation in World War I. The 1920 election produced an overwhelming Republican victory, with Harding capturing 60% of the popular vote and 404 electoral votes through a meticulously orchestrated front-porch campaign strategy. Harding, who died in 1923 from an acute heart attack, was widely mourned by the American public, suggesting he was a substantially more competent and successful administrator than his subsequent historical reputation indicates. 1922 HARDING
