The Aftermath: The 1980 New Mexico Prison Riot

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca revisits the 1980 New Mexico Prison Uprising with Dr. Robert Chase of Stony Brook University. Robert is a Professor of History and the author of We Are Not Slaves: State Violence, Coerced Labor, and Prisoners Rights in Postwar America and Caging Borders and Carceral States: Incarcerations, Migration Detention, and Resistance. His insight on the context and culture in which this uprising unfolds is invaluable and haunting. Afterward, Patreon subscribers can revisit the board with Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early.
