Fighting Fire from Behind Bars

Fire Escape, a new podcast series, tells the stories of five women who are incarcerated firefighters.

One of them, Amika Mota, is a former midwife, daughter of a feminist icon, whose journey challenges the stigma surrounding women in prison. Amika and other formerly incarcerated women join Fire Escape host Anna Sussman and Spooked and Snap Judgment host Glynn Washington to tell stories of fighting fires behind bars.
