I’m so proud of the work @prisonjourn has done since we launched in 2020. The stories our writers have published, the growth they’ve shown as students of our curriculum, the upcoming handbook - all of this couldn’t have happened without your support. Please help us meet our goal.

The second article in our 8-part series for @PennLive went live today. Our @PSUBellisario students profiled a beautiful young couple whose dreams and trust in the U.S. shattered after the husband was detained by ICE for 3 months. Please meet Juan & Nicole. pennlive.com/news/2026/05/i…

My friend @JoshuaPVaughn and I led an amazing indepth reporting class this semester @PSUBellisario. Our students tackled ICE & its largest detention facility in the Northeast. Today the first of our 8-part series was published in @PennLive. So proud! pennlive.com/news/2026/05/a…

Despite offering some of South America’s best cuisine, richest cultural attractions and most striking natural landscapes — from the roaring cascades of Iguazu Falls to the windswept plains of the Pampas — Argentina’s famously volatile economy is hamstringing the tourism industry. Vasco Chen reports.

University professors are protesting and learning to adapt to their new world of salary cuts imposed by President Javier Milei in his efforts to tame the country's high inflation. I spoke with professors in Argentina to see how hey have been surviving. Esteban Marenco reports.

Green space in Buenos Aires is unevenly distributed, increasing risk of poor physical and mental health for residents in lower and middle income neighborhoods. In Villa Santa Rita, which had been the city's only neighborhood with no public parks, the community mobilized for their first plaza. Mercedes Hamilton reports.

Polo is one of Argentina's signature sports, but only in the last decade has the women's game hit the mainstream. Evan Smith has more.

Beyond Buenos Aires lies the heart of Argentina’s countryside, the Pampas, where, for generations, the iconic gauchos have lived and worked the plains, shaping its cattle, land, and enduring traditions. Reporter, Bronwyn Liber looks into how today's Gauchos keep those same traditions alive.

A longtime member of the Argentine labor union called "Las Mandarinas," Norma Morales advocates for recognition of women's and workers rights under the "chainsaw" approach of Milei's administration. Vida Lashgari reports.

This Prison Is One of The Most Progressive in the US prisonjournalismproject.org/2025/12/08/mos… "This isn’t just about prison reform. It’s about redefining justice. Retribution has its limits. You can’t punish a man into wholeness. But you can love him there."

The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments during the government shutdown. apnews.com/article/snap-f…

In his speech, Zohran Mamdani addressed Trump head on. Trump appeared to acknowledge Mamdani’s call-out, posting ”…AND SO IT BEGINS!” on his Truth Social site.

Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City on Tuesday, capping a stunning ascent for the 34-year-old state lawmaker, who was set to become the city’s most liberal mayor in generations.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani!

This is the stupidest story ever. Anyone with an ounce of cultural awareness knows that people from South Asian cultures call their mother or father’s cousin by aunt or uncle as a term of respect. We don’t call them distant cousins. Do better.

Thousands of people detained by ICE are actually held in local, publicly operated jails These facilities–run by elected sheriffs–are making money off of the incarceration of people who are mostly accused of no more serious offense than crossing the border without permission

What the…?
