Ep.106 Advocating for Prison Reform with Guest Christa Roseboro & Taj Mahon-Haft
What if the emotional turmoil of incarceration didn't just end with the individual behind bars? In my latest episode, we bring you the gripping stories of Taj Mahon-Haft, a sociologist turned advocate, and Christa Roseboro, a mother navigating the heartache of having a son in prison. Taj's transformative journey from his own unexpected incarceration to co-founding the Humanization Project is nothing short of inspiring. Together with Christa, they offer a powerful perspective on the need to humanize those affected by the justice system. From dismantling stereotypes to emphasizing personal stories as catalysts for legislative change, their insights are a call to action for empathy and understanding in prison reform.
Join us as we unpack initiatives like the Calls from Home radio program, which strengthens connections between incarcerated individuals and their families. Taj passionately discusses the overlooked challenges faced by women in prison and the importance of advocating for their support. Meanwhile, Christa shares the emotional ripple effects of her son Devon's incarceration, shedding light on the broader impact on families and communities. This heartfelt exchange serves as a reminder of the importance of open dialogue and unwavering support for loved ones during their darkest moments. Prepare to be moved and motivated to recognize the personhood of incarcerated individuals in your own advocacy efforts.
