We are the Amistad Law Project, a small grassroots public interest law center and organizing project in the city of Philadelphia.  We advocate for the human rights of people adversely impacted by the system, including people behind prison walls. Welcome to our monthly podcast where we’ll be lifting up the voices of our community members in the struggle for healthier and safer communities. By sharing perspectives you won’t normally hear on mainstream media platforms, we’re building our own platforms, raising our own voices, and telling our own stories, the way they need to be told.  The plot thickens constantly in our struggle, and we have to push through the thickness, to move the plot forward towards change.  We hope you’ll join us in moving it forward.
