//Content warning for this talk: mentions of sexual assault and suicide, discussions about transphobia

In this episode we hear from people working with the criminal justice system to develop policy and support those who live within these systems. Michelle Brewer is a barrister with specialities in human rights and experiences representing trans prisoners. Chryssy Hunter - who amongst her roles with Gendered Intelligence, TAGS, Opening Doors -  is today representing the Bent Bars Project, who are a grassroots letter-writing project responding to the need for stronger connections and solidarity between LGBTQ people inside and outside prison walls.
