Interview with Lovinah Igbani
Description
An account of the resource
<span>Lovinah Igbani-Perkins is a prison reform activist and student of social work at the University of Houston. As a formerly incarcerated person with a loved one still on the inside, Lovinah sees it as her duty to fight for TDCJ reforms, such as air conditioning, COVID-19 protocol, adequate and nutritious meals. On May 23, 2020, Lovinah helped organize a protest to demand that TDCJ improve conditions in Texas prisons in light of COVID-19. In this interview, Lovinah speaks about community action, her job as a drug and alcohol counselor, her future prospects as a social worker, and discovering her calling for prison activism and mental health activism. Lovinah discusses how proud she is of her community rallying together, but how there is still work to be done. This interview was conducted via zoom on May 25, 2020 by interviewer, Murphy Anne Carter, and narrator, Lovinah Igbani.</span>

Interview with Linda Louden
Description
An account of the resource
Linda Louden is a prison reform activist, whose son [at the time of this interview] has been incarcerated for seven years. She has become a voice for incarcerated rights, speaking out on issues concerning the sometimes-fatal lack of air conditioning in prisons, abuse or negligence by the guards, and other inhumane treatment happening inside. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Louden called out TDCJ for their lack of transparency surrounding COVID numbers, deaths, and protocol. Because of her actions and vocal calls for justice, Louden has been removed from her son’s visitor list. Her advocacy has also led to explicit repercussions for her incarcerated son, including the delay of his parole. Louden speaks to some of the ways she has found support during these difficult years, through her faith and church, while emphasizing the importance of continuing to fight for those whose voices have been taken away from them. This interview was conducted virtually by Murphy Anne Carter on June 1, 2020.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>Micaela Rodriguez is a second-year student of social work and activist for dismantling systems of oppression, spurred by her studies and personal experiences.

Interview with Rhiannon
Description
An account of the resource
Rhiannon is a dedicated wife and mother who has been advocating for change and awareness of the impact that COVID19 has had within the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) and the Telford Unit. Rhiannon describes how TDCJ’s response to COVID has changed policies and procedures which have resulted in the neglect and maltreatment of people currently incarcerated. She shares her husband’s experience with such treatment, and describes the effects of prolonged lockdowns, scarcity of food and water, exposure to illness, and restrictions to communication with loved ones on the outside. Rhiannon emphasizes the importance of speaking out on behalf of her husband and other currently incarcerated people, most of whom face the possibility of retaliation for submitting grievances about the living conditions inside the unit.
Rhiannon also shares her perspective as a mother and wife, and describes the worries and challenges she overcomes to be able to support her husband and children. Rhiannon provides her experience with avenues of communication and visitation being restricted between her family and her husband, and the impact it's had on her children and grandchildren, who no longer have many opportunities to speak to her husband. Rhiannon also discusses the importance of fostering relationships and community with other families who also have a loved one who is incarcerated as a means of support and healing, and as a way to build solidarity while advocating for change.

Interview with Andrea McCutcheon
Description
An account of the resource
Andrea McCutcheon’s fiance has been incarcerated since May of 2018. In this interview, Andrea discusses the difficulties her fiance has endured as an immunocompromised individual during COVID-19 and the neglect he faces in Texas prisons. Through consistent engagement with advocacy groups, social support networks, and –when possible– her loved one, Andrea is able to provide information on current situations involving programming, housing, and health protocols happening on the inside. She is one of many who deal with the extra frustration of having a loved one who is still inside despite having been found eligible for parole. Andrea speaks about her journey into advocacy and political action regarding conditions in Texas prisons. She is also involved in Texas Air-Conditioning Advocate and Texas Cares. She further discusses her fear of her fiance becoming infected with COVID-19 and losing his place in line for release. This interview was recorded on June 6, 2020 via Zoom with interviewer Murphy Anne-Carter and narrator Andrea McCutcheon.

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Kambri Crews was raised in rural Texas by deaf parents with few resources. Crew's book, </span><em>Burn Down The Ground: A Memoir</em><span>, reflects on the experience of living with disabled parents who carry their own traumas. In telling her own story, she also explores the past of her alcoholic and abusive father who eventually ended up in a Texas prison for the attempted murder of his partner. Here, Crews talks to TAVP about what has happened in the 8 years since her book was published. She also speaks upon the fear of police within the deaf community due to deaf/hearing misunderstandings that often lead to brutality at the hands of the police.She reflects on her father's experience as a deaf man in a prison system that is unable or unwilling to accommodate him– despite a ravaging pandemic and continuing health problems. She talks specifically about his struggles with health while inside, including his reluctance to seek any medical treatment because of a distrust for the prison medical system. In July 2020, Crews's father passed away from terminal cancer.</span>

Interview with Raymon Pierce
Description
An account of the resource
Raymon Pierce is a CNA whose husband– at the time of this interview– has been incarcerated for eight years. In efforts to create a space for TDCJ information sharing and a support group for those with loved ones on the inside, Raymon created the Texas Connected: TDCJ Friends and Family Facebook group. In this interview, Raymon explains the pain and frustration with TDCJ that led to the creation of Texas Connected in early 2020, and how he hopes it provides a power to those advocating for incarcerated loved ones. As a healthcare worker, Raymon talks about the unsafe conditions in Texas prisons in the wake of Covid-19. Additionally Raymon also discusses his experience getting married to his husband at the Smith Unit, and the emotional toll that separation and limited contact have on him. This interview took place on July 2, 2020 over zoom, with interviewer Murphy-Anne Carter and narrator Raymon Pierce.

Interview with Kirsten Ricketts
Description
An account of the resource
Kirsten Ricketts is an incarcerated rights advocate with a loved one on the inside. As a formerly incarcerated person herself, she deeply understands the abuse and injustices that incarcerated people face on the inside and in the free world. Using her previous experience, Kirsten created a transitional living facility for recently freed women where she helps them gain job experience all the while providing a safe space for them to re-enter society. In this interview, Kirsten speaks on her own personal calling to continue to advocate for just treatment inside Texas prisons, especially in the wake of COVID-19. Additionally, she speaks about her husband’s and her own experience in Texas prisons and the challenges she has faced with recidivism and the struggle to re-enter society. Kirsten finds hope in her Christian faith and working in prison ministries and urges free people to know and understand the injustices that incarcerated people face everyday. This interview was conducted on July 16, 2020 by interviewer Murphy Anne Carter and narrator Kirsten Ricketts.

Description
An account of the resource
Jennifer Toon is a journalist from East Texas with 27 years of system involvement. She wrote for the state prison newspaper, The Echo, for over ten years, and as a freelance writer she has published work with The Texas Observer, The Marshall Project, and the Guardian. In this interview, Toon offers a personal perspective on how her lived experiences influence her current journalism and advocacy. She discusses how important it is for peer support to come from actual peers, highlighting the concept of “nothing for us without us.” The specific issues she touches on include nuances of the female experience behind bars, the familial community built during her years there, and the irreplaceable importance of maintaining connections to the outside while locked inside. Toon also outlines the most pressing objectives she hopes to highlight during COVID. She can speak directly to the ways that the virus has escalated injustices happening in prisons because of her close contact to many of those still incarcerated. (Line break) Despite the atrocities that she is regularly hearing and writing about, Toon offers the optimistic perspective that hardships can be shaped into tools to help self or others. In this interview, and throughout all her writings, Toon maintains positivity without denial of how severely problematic the system can be. Some of her articles, including ones discussed in this interview, can be found at https://muckrack.com/jennifer-toon/articles. This interview was conducted virtually by Murphy Anne Carter on August 10, 2020.

Interview with Kimberly Judd
Description
An account of the resource
Kimberly Judd’s husband of 18 years is currently incarcerated in the Texas Prison system. In this interview, Kimberly describes the inhumane conditions incarcerated people are subjected to under the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). Specifically, Kimberly speaks about her husband’s experience with starvation and unsafe living conditions in 2020, during the Covid-19 lockdown, in the Garza East and West Units and the Ferguson Unit. Kimberly recounts the abuse in every unit her husband has stayed in and discusses the gross abuses of power by guards, wardens, and the Texas government. She discusses the community she has found within the TDCJ unit support groups and how information sharing has increased her awareness of the injustice on the inside. This interview was conducted on July 6, 2020 on Zoom by interviewer Celeste Henery and narrator Kimberly Judd.
