Unprisoned: Stories From The System

From New Orleans and Louisiana, the world’s incarceration capital, we will meet those serving time inside and outside the criminal justice system.
(4)

Independent producer and longtime WWNO collaborator Eve Abrams brings us Unprisoned: Stories From The System. Unprisoned is designed to meld traditional broadcast and digital storytelling platforms with opportunities to include the community in the creation and dissemination of the conversation, with the overarching goal of engaging people under-served by traditional media.

“Unprisoned will share

stories to incite conversation about the ways mass incarceration affects families, communities and notions of justice,” says Abrams. “What has Louisiana done to become the incarceration capital of the world? Is our criminal justice system making us safer? How are we all passively or actively supporting the current system? What do we want for our future?”

Abrams will be joined in answering these questions by WWNO news staff, including Digital Director Jason Saul, a veteran multimedia journalist, and a cadre of local producers who will enhance and support Unprisoned on the radio, online, and in the community. The project intends to expand the understanding of, and audience for, public service journalism.
