Transcripts Presents: "Anarchist Resistance In Prison: Jennifer A. Rose," Final Straw Radio

Transcripts

Another installment in our Fall Anti-Fascist Radio series, this time from the Asheville-based show The Final Straw Radio. I'm so heartened by the work that audio producers are putting in so we can hear the voices of incarcerated trans people-- doing an interview with someone who's in prison takes some different methods, and I'm really grateful that we get to share this interview with you. (PS-- there are two interviews in the full episode, we cut out the second one for time, but I encourage you to listen to both on the website for the original audio!)

Thanks so much, and please rate and review if you'd like to help us out! And donate to your local mutual aid fund.
