I have appreciated your work over the years especially your principled coverage of strikes which while centering the actions and voices of people inside also avoided uncritically accepting wild proclamations of contrived victories. .wonderful work and principles you will share l

. @shadowproofcom was ahead of its time in bringing incarcerated writers' voices into the mainstream and busting myths propagated by departments of corrections. We're grateful for their amazing run.

Their 2015 series on Advanced Correctional Healthcare showed how “correctional healthcare” companies callously neglect incarcerated people and employ the doctors no one else wants: shadowproof.com/prison-prote…

In 2018, Shadowproof broke the news that USDA had provided $277 million in funding for counties to build new or bigger jails. For those of us working to show how our government invests in punishment rather than care, this story was/is pivotal. shadowproof.com/2018/06/06/2…

Over its run, @shadowproofcom has been an indispensable source of stories about prisons and criminalization that have a clear moral vision and a “long shelf life.” Here are 5 worth reading today.

Thank you for the years of dedication and principled reporting when it came to our inside resistance. You all laid the ground work for so many in that field when it came to reporting on prisons and prisoners. On the behalf of Jailhouse Lawyers Speak we will forever be grateful!

@shadowproofcom has been an invaluable partner since we started our work -- they invested fully in incarcerated writers when few publications would, never apologized for merging abolition with journalism, and have changed a difficult media industry for the better. Much love 🩷

So appreciative of @shadowproofcom + @bsonenstein for the space they offered to young writers & incarcerated ones One of my first ever freelance pieces was published here, a story that very few places would run: Why so many Trans support organizations focused on prison abolition

Shadowproof set high standards for covering prisons, jails, and policing, and supporting the journalists willing to produce that coverage. We wish the best to the Shadowproof team, and thank them for supporting this story by Sierra Dickey earlier this year theshoestring.org/2023/06/19…

Very sad news for me. I don't have the words to express all my gratitude for @bsonenstein & @kgosztola for their roles in giving me the confidence to do independent journalism & for covering US prisoners in a humanizing way that takes seriously their perspectives & resistance
