Episode 13: Marlon Chamberlain - what does it mean to be fully free upon release
Marlon has an established track record of creating effective coalitions, including passing the largest sealing expansion law in the United States and leading a voter registration campaign, which registered over 1,000 people with records to vote.
He is currently the campaign manager for the Fully Free Campaign in Illinois, which works to dismantle the laws and regulations that govern permanent punishments, which are the barriers that deny or restrict rights and opportunities for people with a record -- long after their involvement with the criminal legal system is over.
We spoke about the power of collaboration and correcting the narrative to achieve true rights restoration.
