Life Sentences by Stealth: Nate Interviews Sam Asumadu about IPPs

TRASHFUTURE - A podcast by TRASHFUTURE

Categories:

In this special extra segment, Nate interviews Sam Asumadu from Media Diversified (@WritersOfColour) about the phenomenon of Indeterminate Sentences for Public Protection (IPPs), a now-banned sentence that has resulted in thousands of British residents effectively receiving life sentences for acts as minor as stealing a mobile phone at age 17. Sam’s written an article on the topic for OpenDemocracy, which is available here: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/opendemocracyuk/families-plea-over-barbaric-indefinite-prison-sentences-for-minor-crimes/ Check out Media Diversified’s Linktree here: https://linktr.ee/mediadiversified *MILO ALERT* Milo has a bunch of live shows this month in both London and Prague.
