  • Summary

  • Imprisoned people are setting themselves on fire at a US jail. At Red Onion State Prison in Virginia, we examine the racism and abuse that leave them feeling they have no other way to protest. Are these issues isolated to Red Onion, or do they reflect a deeper, systemic problem within US prisons?

    In this episode:

    • Noel Hanrahan (@PrisonRadio), legal director for Redwood Justice Fund and co-director of Prison Radio
