From the Archives: February 27, 2015 Show

Prison Radio Show

Decided to put up a show from our archives on the podcast. Enjoy. It's from February 27, 2015. At the time, we would record live and download our episodes from the CKUT archives so there's a bit of the jazz show's tail end at the beginning. Our show starts at 1m16s!

This show featured two live interviews – one with Soffiyah Elijah of the Correctional Association of New York about changes to New York State youth justice legislation and one with Ralph from Head & Hands here in Montreal. Ralph talked to us about youth incarceration in Montreal and Project X, a project which helps youth in finding creative ways to survive institutional racism and racial profiling. We also played a song by Peter Collins and included an update about his health. (Peter died in August 2015).
