EPISODE 38: Why We Should Abolish Prisons in the UK
Listen now
Description
In this episode we speak to Kelsey from Community Action on Prison Expansion (CAPE) about prison abolition in the UK. We hear about the different types of prisons, current expansion plans, community resistance and get a glimpse of what a society without police could be like. This conversation was so rich, thought provoking and just so far our favourite. We hope it challenges and changed you.
