Thank you Prison Policy Initiative for delving deep into this system. These numbers deserve a second look: 75 people granted parole out of 3000 hearings! prisonpolicy.org/blog/2023/12/1… This gives great context to Kate McQueen piece in Alta Journal
This is a great opportunity to hear from people making journalism happen from inside prison. Looking forward to sharing a Zoom stage with Joe Garcia and Jesse Vasquez of Pollen Initiative and The San Quentin News WallCity Magazine
In case you missed the Alta Journal Live event yesterday... it now lives online! The San Quentin News/ Pollen Initiative ED Jesse Vasquez and I chat about prison journalism and the CA parole process with Alta's fabulous digital editor Beth Spotswood! altaonline.com/events/a464284…
“This paper has been my sanity, and my “thing” since I’ve been a San Quentin.” From J. Pence Wagner’s farewell column as editor of San Quentin News, published July 30, 1971. Interesting piece of prison journalism history dug up from the The San Quentin News archives ✨
Published this week: a fascinating Prison Journalism Project reentry story from Joshua Richards, a participant in a writing workshop I did for Education Justice Project. Looking forward to seeing more articles being published out of this great college in prison program! prisonjournalismproject.org/2024/01/28/ree…
A must read. California Governor budget will spend $132,860 to incarcerate someone in prison for a year. That money should be spent on housing, jobs & education. Opinion: California has a $38-billion deficit. So why are we still paying for prisons we don't need? latimes.com/opinion/story/…
Join us for an informative discussion about the First Amendment in prisons. Former editor in chief Jesse Vasquez will be a part of this important conversation along with Eastern State Penitentiary easternstate.org/visit/events/j…
