LAP Introduces, The Secret Life of Prisons, Letters To Myself
Life After Prison will be back with you soon but while we are finalising series 4 in the studio, we thought we would share some episodes of another podcast here. It’s called The Secret Life of Prisons and is made by our colleagues at the Prison Radio Association. This episode is all about the power of words.
They hear from a special panel, hosted by poet Mr Gee, where guests Jerelle, Dee and Jeanno share their experiences of prison through their writing.
This episode was originally made for the Bare Lit Festival, an independent, annual festival of stories, celebrating the work of creatives of colour. You can find out more about Bare Lit and listen to sessions from this year's festival here.
Presenters: Phil Maguire and Paula Harriott Guests: Mr Gee, Jerelle, Dee and Jeanno Producers: Louisa Adams and Arthur Hagues
