Shakaboona and Serge sit down with Nia Holston, an attorney with the Abolitionist Law Center, to talk about the pervasive lack of oversight in jails and prisons. Nia shares insights from her work on a lawsuit against the city of Philadelphia and its department of prisons over the conditions of the city’s jails, describing how the COVID pandemic exacerbated existing human rights issues, and how people inside and outside are organizing for accountability.
