Dear Friends,
I am writing to introduce you to my new podcast Just Justice.
Just Justice takes a deep dive into the world of second chances for people in the criminal legal system.
I’ve got a truly amazing line-up of guests from around the country including second chance advocates, academics, activists, authors, and people with lived experiences. We have thoughtful, poignant and provocative discussions about children in prison, the broken system of parole, public safety, recidivism, remorse and forgiveness. We consider perspectives from prosecutors, victims and surviving family members, defense attorneys, social justice visionaries, and people who spent years in prison.
If you are interested in ending mass incarceration, learning more about criminal justice reform, or want a new take on true crime, Just Justice is for you.
Join us for the conversation.
Listen on the streaming services below or wherever you get your podcasts, and be sure to “follow” to receive updates about the latest episodes.

I’ll be back next month with an October newsletter about all things criminal justice. Until then, I hope you’ll head over to Just Justice.
Take good care,
Jessica

Subject: Urgent: Trump’s Jailing of Adversaries & the Silencing of Incarcerated Journalists
Dear Just justice
With President Trump’s actions raising serious concerns about the jailing of political adversaries, the issue of press freedom has never been more critical. We believe a segment featuring Seth Stern of the Freedom of the Press Foundation and community activist TJ Amey would offer your audience a vital perspective on this alarming trend.
Our proposed segment will delve into:
* **The chilling effect:** How the jailing of political opponents and the harassment of journalists undermines the First Amendment.
* **The specific plight of incarcerated journalists:** Seth Stern, with his expertise from the Freedom of the Press Foundation, will discuss the systemic harassment and retaliation they face.
* **Real-world examples:** TJ Amey will bring firsthand knowledge of the struggles faced by incarcerated journalists like Jeremy Busby, highlighting the urgency of this issue.
* **The broader implications:** How these actions threaten the foundations of democracy and the public’s right to know.
This segment offers a timely and crucial examination of the erosion of press freedom in the current political climate. We believe it will resonate deeply with your audience and spark a vital conversation.
We are available for an interview at your convenience.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Joinjeremy.org https://www.cjr.org/first_person/jeremy-busby-texas-prison-journalism.php
