Super excited for ChristopherBlackwell to give a presentation about our upcoming book on solitary confinement (with a guest appearance by Dr Terry Kupers) this Monday.

I can’t believe my Solitary book with ChristopherBlackwell is actually happening! In the book we argue (based on medical testimony and many stories by people who have spent time there) that prolonged solitary confinement is cruel and unusual punishment in every instance.

What an honor to be on TheAbolitionChristian℠’s Abolition Christian podcast to discuss our writing program for aspiring incarcerated journalists and my Solitary Confinement book (with ChristopherBlackwell). ❤️😍 patreon.com/posts/11314323…



Spoiler alert from my forthcoming book with ChristopherBlackwell @terrykupers and Kwaneta Harris: Solitary confinement is torture. search.app/xoPZYGcr6ZqGBf…


This story about Frank De Palma is heartbreaking. Frank is such an inspiration (he and Mary are contributing to my book about solitary). Please buy his book! It’s amazing. drive.google.com/file/d/1cTqnjF…





Join us for the launch of Jewish Currents contributing writer Christopher Blackwell’s new book, "Ending Isolation: The Case Against Solitary Confinement." For this special event, Chris will be in conversation with advocates who work on ending solitary, including UTB's own: Johnny




Proud of my recent piece with Kwaneta Harris exposing the rampant sexual assault in solitary confinement at her prison. She is so incredibly brave.


16 yrs after going to prison, Kwaneta Harris tells her 13-year-old self everything she wished she knew sooner. Kwaneta is my co-author (w/ChristopherBlackwell): Ending Isolation: The Case Against Solitary Confinement. (bookshop.org/p/books/ending…) narratively.com/p/letter-to-my…
