Resistance Behind Bars: The Struggles of Incarcerated Women

Media Literacy Project, Strong Families, and Thousand Kites invite you to download our Mama's Day radio special. Broadcast it on your radio station or play it at a community meeting to spark a dialogue. With your support we'll send voices through barbed-wire to our millions of neighbors behind bars this Mama's Day.

In the U.S., we have a nation inside our nation. In America's prison-nation, mothers are forced to give birth in shackles and families are asked to pay exorbitant charges to telephone corporations in order to keep in touch with their incarcerated loved ones. As part of our Mama's Day Special we invite you to join two national campaigns: BIRTHING BEHIND BARS and PRISON PHONE JUSTICE CAMPAIGN.

Non-commercial radio stations can download our program and broadcast it without restrictions. Contact us at team@thousandkites.org for additional information.

Get involved with one of our partner campaigns and start your Mama's Day off right!
