Episode description
We're joined by abolitionist (yes, literally the original definition) and blues rock bassist John Burnett (@john_b_ill) to discuss his time in the Louisiana Correctional System and the hidden slavery that continues to thrive in America.
We talk about mandatory minimums, brutal guards, modern plantations, and the insidious nature of human exploitation in capitalism.
So yeah, good vibes all around. Follow us (@djtomhanks and @_tonywestside) and the show (@UnelectableA) if you want, and check out additional content on our (free) Patreon.
