Kym Ray & David Maxted: Agency vs. Slavery in Colorado Prison Labor

A Denver District Court has determined that Colorado's prison labor practices unconstitutional. How did we get here? What's the history of prison labor laws in Colorado and the U.S.? What's the link between the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and the day-to-day life of incarcerated people today? In this episode of UNLOCKING CHANGE, Kym Ray of End Slavery Colorado and David Maxted of Maxted Law break it all down, in a conversation with Colorado Radio for Justice (CRJ) host JoyBelle Phelan. Colorado, they say, is a bellwether in national prison labor reform.
