    Episode 60 Jamil Jivani Hello and welcome to Episode 60 of the decarceration nation podcast, a podcast about radically reimagining America's criminal justice system. I'm Josh Oh, among other things, I'm formerly incarcerated a freelance writer, a criminal justice reform advocate, and the author of the book writing your own best story addiction and living hope. We'll get to my interview with Jamil Jivani about his book “Why Young Men” in just a minute, but first the news: Thanks to everyone for their patience, I'm trying to work out how I want to proceed with episodes. And all of the different members of the decarceration nation team have been off on different summer vacations. I've recorded a bunch of new episodes and they should all be coming out in relatively short order. It's been an odd week. In the middle of the week, I heard that my friend Alice Marie Johnson was applying to have her supervision cut short, I was pretty happy to hear about that. As you probably know, Miss Alice's sentence was commuted by President Trump after she spent 22 years in prison for first time drug offense. Now I have absolutely no way of knowing what Alice was like before she was incarcerated. But I know very well who she is now. And I met many members of her large and loving family. I've met people who knew her in prison. And I've also met people who knew her in prison. But we're not incarcerated whether for instance, I've met one of our prison chaplains, and he, like all the rest of us love the person she is now.
