OUR SHOW TODAY will look at issues ranging from the proposed Tax Plan to activists working in Palestine and our Long Island jails.

Joining us will be Stephen Figurasmith. Stephen will speak for the Nassau County Jail Advocates (NCJA). He is a local parent, educator, and activist. He became passionate about prisoner rights and prison abolition while at Hampshire College in Western Massachusetts from 2004-08 where he studied the work of authors and activists such as Angela Davis, Dorothy Roberts, Sistersong Collective, INCITE!, and Critical Resistance. Stephen volunteered to tutor at the local county jail with the student group Building Awareness Across Bars. His activism is further inspired by family and friends who have been incarcerated.
