Fighting the good fight - Firefly advocates

Fighting the good fight - Firefly advocates

This week, I sit down with the founder of Firefly Advocates, a grassroots organisation in the United States dedicated to supporting incarcerated individuals and fighting for justice reform. We discuss what inspired the creation of Firefly, the challenges of advocacy work behind prison walls, and the power of human connection in some of the darkest corners of the justice system. From wrongful convictions to life sentences without parole, this conversation shines a light on the overlooked — and the advocates working tirelessly to bring them back into focus.
