The faces behind (and on) the screen.


The following production team interns are representative of the Winter/Spring 2021 Cohort 4. Some members of the production team are placed with the Show for an entire semester, while others are with us for 6-7 months. Each one of the production team members brings a very unique perspective, insight, and observation to the weekly production of each episode. More importantly, each one remains open to learning, growing, and expanding their awareness and understanding of social and criminal justice reform issues. Production team members are exposed to the nuances that exist in this space to enlighten their understanding so that they may return to their communities armed, from an informed place, that changes individuals as well as communities.
