Full Show August 11, 2022

This episode features a long interview with Ardath Whynacht. Ardath teaches at Mount Allison University and wrote the book Insurgent Love: Abolition and Domestic Homicide. In the interview, we took a deep dive into questions the book brings up such as what is the difference between intimate terrorism and other kinds of intimate partner violence, what role could disarmament play in the fight against both police violence and intimate terrorism, and how does Ardath commemorate Prisoner Justice Day. Content warning: the book and therefore, the interview, are about violence in intimate relationships, including murder and murder-suicide.

Prison Radio has been on the air in Montreal for more than a decade. The show seeks to confront the invisibility of prisons and prisoner struggle, by focusing on the roots of incarceration, policing, and criminalization, and by challenging ideas about what prisons are and who ends up inside. Prison Radio is dedicated to programming that is directly collaborative with people who are currently incarcerated. This is in the interest of forging stronger ties between incarcerated and non-incarcerated people, ensuring that prisoners have direct control over their representation, and that our understandings of prisons be informed by those who live inside their walls.
