Description
Amy Shlosberg, Ph.D , is an Associate Professor of Criminology and Department Chair at Fairleigh Dickinson University where she teaches courses on Wrongful Conviction, Offender Reentry and Reintegration, Race and Crime, Penology, Comparative Justice Systems, Data Analysis and Research Methods. Her primary research focuses on miscarriages of justice, the negative implications of incarceration and issues surrounding reentry, with an emphasis on policy and procedural reform. She is also the co-host of two podcasts: Women & Crime and Direct Appeal
Amy and I connect via Instagram (where all the best relationships are born) and I immediately knew I wanted to have her on the show. The work she is doing in our criminal justice system is so important. And it’s so important that all of us US citizens understand the way our system works - and repeatedly fails to work. I learned so much in this conversation and I think you will too.
Listen in to hear Amy share:
How she got involved teaching people in prisons and why it lights her up
The impact of bringing university students into her prison classroom
What inspired her and her podcast co host to create Women & Crime
How women can be offenders and victims in our criminal justice system at the same time
Her thoughts on whether or not our current criminal justice system works
How the culture of poverty impacts our criminal justice system
Why people are wrongfully convicted and the role of bias in wrongful convictions
The problem with our bail system
Why she has hope for our criminal justice system in spite of its current
