Re-imagining the Future by Looking at the Past and Present

Joise Duffy Rice and Clint Smith

The Justice in America podcast is an attempt to explain why the U.S. criminal justice system looks the way it does today. Each episode Josie Duffy Rice and Clint Smith help their audience understand how the system works and its impact, particularly on the poor and people of color. Josie is a senior reporter for The Appeal, a senior strategist for The Justice Collaborative, and a lawyer at the Fair Punishment Project . Clint is a writer, teacher, and doctoral candidate at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education whose work centers on placing the present-day criminal justice system in its larger historical context.
