Listen, Ladies

Author Liza Jessie Petersen joins the podcast to discuss her experiences as a pre-GED teacher to young men embroiled in the criminal justice system. In her book, All Day: A Year of Love and Survival Teaching Incarcerated Kids at Rikers Island, Petersen shares insights on the daily lives of her students, her mission to instill them with information far beyond the pages of any textbook, and what she learned from leading a classroom full of teenagers.
