Arrest Stories -- interviews with climate heroes

Episodes

Zain in Jail -- Leg Shackles and Prison Mice 25.03.2022 21:01

This is a follow-up to 21-year-old Zain's pre-jail interview, and is a stark look at the dark underbelly of so-called British Columbia's prison system.

Earle Peach in Jail -- Rotting Meat and Ravi Shankar 17.03.2022 40:02

Earle was sentenced to two weeks in prison for protesting the Trans Mountain Pipeline. Listen to his incredibly intelligent analysis of the "criminal" justice system. It wasn't all bad -- sometimes you get a Ravi Shankar concert in jail!

Jo-- 36 Hours in Solitary 20.02.2022 36:17

This week we interview 19-year-old climate activist Jo.  The way the police and the court system have treated this brave and intelligent young individual is shocking and appalling.  

Pre-Prison Interview with Zain Haq 11.02.2022 25:23

In the first official Arrest Stories episode, we interview 21-year-old environmental activist Zain Haq, who is being sentenced in the next few days. These are Zain's thoughts on the climate crisis, the justice system and what needs to happen for humans to avoid mass starvation, violence and death. Oh, and going to jail.
