Unprisoned is a radio show and podcast that tells the stories behind the statistics: the ways our families, neighborhoods, and notions justice are impacted by our criminal justice system.
How are we serving time outside?
From New Orleans, the world's incarceration capital, Unprisoned investigates why Louisiana leads the world in per-capita incarceration.
Unprisoned airs on WWNO, New Orleans Public Radio, and WBOK, New Orleans' home for news and talk from an African American perspective. Unprisoned is a 2017 Peabody Finalist and the recipient of a Gabriel Award and a New Orleans Press Club Award. Unprisoned was piloted through Finding America, a national initiative produced by AIR, the Association of Independents in Radio, Inc., striving to make public media serve and represent more of the public.
