Understanding jail reform

70 Million is an open-source podcast. That means giving you the tools to dig deeper into the issues uncovered in the episodes. Below you'll find articles and resources from our partners as well as syllabi, transcripts, and reform toolkits by episode. Our hope is that you'll feel compelled to work towards change at the local level, and that these resources can be the guide. Drawing from sources in the 70 Million podcast stories and other experts, we’ve assembled a companion reading list of articles, books, and papers that give context to the growing jail-reform movement in America.
