For NSP 73 we spoke with Victoria Law about mass incarceration, COVID-19 in prisons, counterproductive reform, abolition, and more. Victoria Law is a journalist and author who writes about incarceration, resistance and gender. Her most recent book is Corridors of Contagion: How the Pandemic Exposed the Cruelties of Incarceration.
