Note: this episode contains strong language. As a growing number of staff and incarcerated people have tested positive for COVID-19 inside Santa RIta Jail in Alameda County, Jose Bernal (Ella Baker Center Organizing Manager) and Amber Akemi Piatt (Health Instead of Punishment Program Director, Human Impact Partners) discuss decarceration, abolition, public health during COVID-19, and the need to hold Alameda County Sheriff Greg Ahern - the Bay Area version of the infamous Sheriff Joe Arpaio - accountable.
