Kathy Morse was incarcerated on Rikers Island and shared her story in the recent Bill Moyers documentary, Rikers: An American Jail. Kathy is an advocate on social justice issues, concentrating on women’s issues and improving the quality of educational programming in jails and prisons as well as the community upon release. Kathy worked for over thirty years as a paralegal and was the Division Manager in New York for the Petey Greene Program, which supplements educational programs in correctional institutions by preparing volunteers, both college students and members of the community, to provide free, quality tutoring and related programming to support the incarcerated people.

Josh interviews Beverly Parenti co-creator of The Last Mile First, apologies, we faced some unique technical difficulties that we have never faced before. Andy was able to deal with many of the problems, but unfortunately, there is a portion of the interview that still has some feedback and a portion of the interview that has some drift so that the tracks were not lined up correctly. Thank you for your patience and I hope you will still enjoy the interview. This week I published my 69th recap of the television show Orange Is the New Black. I should probably mention that Kathy Morse is also joining in to help out with my Season 6 recaps. In case you were curious, Jeff Sessions would actually be made weaker by the passage of the First Step Act (which is probably why the DOJ has come out in opposition to the bill). I did also write this response to Boots Riley's critique of Spike Lee's movie BlackkKlansman. Beverly Parenti's bio is incredibly impressive. I read many articles and watched many videos about The Last Mile that lead me to ask Beverly for an interview including this presentation by Beverly and her husband Chris, this article in Wired, and this great YouTube video. You should also explore The Last Mile's website or even more important, their web development webpage (prisoners do the work and make the money).

Josh discusses the recent compromise promising a combination of the First Step Act with the best parts of the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act. You can read our most recent Orange Is the New Black Recap or look back through all of the recaps. Kathy Morse was one of the inmates featured in the Bill Moyers documentary "Rikers: Am American Jail." Our original First Step Act episode of this podcast was Episode 18 and featured Ames Grawert of the Brennan Center, Jessica Jackson Sloan of Cut 50, and Jason Pye of FreedomWorks. Janie and Buzz founded the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. The President and House and Senate Leadership moved recently to combine the First Step Act and Chuck Grassley's Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act. In case you forgot, Prisons and Jails, as currently constructed don't make us safer. You can read the different sections of the First Step Act to see why Jeff Sessions is not given unprecedented or unaccountable power. Recently, the Brennan Center for Justice, a former opponent has indicated that they are likely to support the new compromise legislation. Distance matters and this article is a good summary of the evidence for why visitation and distance are critical to better prisoner outcomes. The Mandatory Minimums quote came from this great article by Erik Luna. The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act included new mandatory minimums. The Department of Justice Letter opposing the First Step Act was almost as shocking as Senator Grassley's response. My friend Jason Pye and his co-worker Sarah Anderson at FreedomWorks wrote a very detailed response to the DOJ letter. Here is a great summary of the problems with electronic monitoring. I do not think that John Pfaff has written an article about privatization but I have had many conversations about this issue on Twitter.
