Hard to keep up with all the great new Inquest pieces
Regular readers recall lots of prior blogging about Inquest, "a decarceral brainstorm," which continues to publish lots of must-read essays and other great materials. I am behind in reading and blogging about all new great new reads from the site, so I will have to be content to just flag here just a few of the many newer pieces worth checking out:
From Christopher Blackwell & Jessica Sandoval, "Seeing the Light: We can't end mass incarceration without first ending solitary confinement once and for all."
From Jessica T. Simes, "Vulnerable Places: Entire communities are singularly exposed to punishment. Understanding how is key to combating mass incarceration."
From Tewkunzi Green, "Surviving Everywhere: Clemency gave me a chance to tell my truth — a truth the criminal legal system made invisible."
From Rachael Bedard & Zachary Rosner, "Treating Unfreedom: Practicing correctional medicine is fundamentally an exercise in harm reduction. And it’s no match for liberty itself."
