The Pandemic Prison w/ Dan Berger (12/01/22)

Beatrice speaks with Dan Berger about how mass incarceration has driven the spread of the pandemic, how prisons and other carceral sites have used covid as an excuse to grow more punitive, and why we need to renew calls from early in the pandemic to “free them all for public health.” You can preorder Dan’s forthcoming book, “Stayed On Freedom: The Long History of Black Power through One Family’s Journey” https://www.basicbooks.com/titles/dan-berger/stayed-on-freedom/9781541675360 As always, support Death Panel at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod Health Communism is finally back in stock and currently 40% for Verso's holiday sale.
