Zuri Moreno joins the show to discuss issues surrounding incarceration in the state of Montana & around the U.S. We address contracts between the state & private entities that move prisoners around the country, the lack of transparency regarding funding, & human rights violations incurred by inmates. In the 2nd half, we discuss whether or not our criminal justice system criminalizes the poor, what policies need to change, and whether or not prisons should be abolished.
