Episode 6. Clemency, Community and Native Life After Prison
Episode 6
Friday, 6 June, 2025
Indigenous people have the highest incarceration rates in Washington state, but they have few support systems for reintegrating back into their communities and recovering from intergenerational trauma. In this episode, we talk with the first known Indigenous person granted clemency by the state of Washington, Benjamin Brockie. We sit with the possibilities and limitations of getting clemency, life on the outside, and hopes for improving the re-entry process for Indigenous communities. This episode features an interview with Benjamin Brockie and highlights the work of Seattle Clemency Project. Special thanks to Louie Gong for permission to use the image of his "Never Say Goodbye" Blanket, an inspired Native wool blanket available from Eighth Generation. All sale proceeds go to benefit Huy.
