Tuck speaks with prison abolitionist and A.B.O. Comix cofounder Casper Cendre (he/they). 

Topics include:

• Becoming a better ally for incarcerated people. 
• Living in a place where physical intimacy is a crime.
• Gender-affirming surgeries and medical care in prison. 
• Are queer people usually “out" in prison?
• Plus: an update on how prisons are handling Covid-19
