We speak to Keri Blakinger (Twitter: @keribla) of the Marshall Project, on the violence and scope of America's Carceral System. 

We focus on why media often ignores prisons, the spread of Covid-19 in the U.S. Carceral System, and the economics of prisons. 

For more of Keri's work you can check out her back catalog of writing at the Marshall Project here: https://www.themarshallproject.org/staff/keri-blakinger
