The American prison system isn’t just designed to keep inmates locked up—it’s built to keep the rest of us from truly seeing what happens inside. Rikers Island, New York City’s largest jail, has long been notorious for its inhumane conditions, including mistreatment, sexual abuse, and inmates being held in solitary confinement for hundreds of days. But understanding the full extent of these horrors is nearly impossible without firsthand experience. Today, Adam speaks with David Campbell and Jarrod Shanahan—criminal justice reformers who were incarcerated at Rikers after protesting—about their time inside and their new book, City Time: On Being Sentenced to Rikers Island.
