Women Impacted

Paglalarawan

What does it look like to be a woman navigating living behind bars? And what happens when those women rejoin society on the outside? The “Dying On The Inside: Women Lifers at Muncy Prison” team convened a panel to discuss the intersection of incarceration, aging, and health with women directly impacted by the justice system at Temple University’s Randall Theater in Philadelphia on May 13, 2026. The panel, moderated by podcast host Cherri Gregg, featured BL Shirelle, co-Executive Director of FREER Records, the first non-profit record label for currently and formerly incarcerated artists, Sarah Laurel, Executive Director of Savage Sisters, and Marie “Mechie” Scott, a former lifer at State Correctional Institution Muncy who served over 50 years before having her sentence commuted earlier this year. Dying on the Inside: Women Lifers at Muncy Prison is a production of Create. Genius. Media and Temple University's Logan Center for Urban Investigative Reporting.Follow us on social media for info about events, issues around mass incarceration and history @dyingontheinsidepodcast Hosted on Acast.
