The Aftermath: The Attica Prison Uprising

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca revisits the Attica Prison Uprising with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Dr. Heather Ann Thompson. From her years of research, Dr. Thompson reminds us of the extreme brutality these prisoners were subjected to, both before and after the uprising, and the disinformation that followed, which has negatively impacted the US prison system to this day. Afterward, Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith stop by to revisit the verdict.
