I am a proud board member of the @prisonjourn because I believe that some of the most powerful storytelling about an issue impacting HALF OF US comes from the people experiencing that issue. If you feel the same, they're doing a fundraiser right now! …njournalismproject.fundjournalism.org/prisonjournali…

I love this @prisonjourn piece, in which incarcerated writer Darrell Powell writes about what it's been like to watch his beloved Knicks make their playoff run from behind bars prisonjournalismproject.org/2024/04/24/new…

The last time Darrell Powell watched the #Knicks win a championship was when he was 8 years old. But their recent success gives him hope as he seeks clemency from life without parole.

Ten years ago, 29,000 people in California prisons staged a hunger strike. On day 60, the hunger strike officially ended when California lawmakers promised to hold legislative hearings about the use of solitary confinement. Story with @theappeal.

Laws that curb parole do not cut down on crime. But they do cause overcrowded prisons, staff shortages and a host of mental health problems.

Chronic health conditions abound — and often go untreated — in U.S. prisons and can often lead to “death by incarceration.” Parole-reform advocates in New York are trying to change that. Story by @prisonjourn’s @wstayner, co-published with @theappeal. prisonjournalismproject.org/2023/05/04/mor…
