About this listen

What does justice look like, beyond the confines of State-administered carceral punishment? In Imagine Justice we hear true stories, told by the people who lived them, of irreparable harm followed by reconciliation.


These stories invite us into the possibility- and reality- of a justice that is co-created by victims, perpetrators, and survivors of violence and their communities. Each of our storytellers navigates toward peace differently, but they all give us insights that can transform the way we think about and approach justice.


Imagine Justice is created by musician, songwriter, and artist Zeo Boekbinder, whose interest in exploring processes of Transformative and Restorative Justice is informed by their time teaching and writing songs alongside incarcerated men at New Folsom Prison, which culminated in the creation of The Prison Music Project.

    The show is on hiatus while I search for more stories to share. I sat on these four episodes for years because I wanted to have more before release. Eventually I just had to release them and hope that, in doing so, more stories would come my way.

    If you want to learn more about holistic justice / non-punitive justice, here is some suggested reading:

    When Stacey was 18 years old, she shot and killed her father who had been sexually abusing her for many years. The night she shot him he had just abused her little sister for the first time. She was convicted of murder and sentenced to life without parole. Her story is powerful. She wrote a memoir, called Redemption, which is available anywhere books are sold. Here is a link to her book on goodreads.
