Eddie Conway

TRNN Executive Producer Eddie Conway joins a blockbuster panel of scholars and activists to discuss the origins, functions, and methods for combating the monstrous reach of our carceral system.

In this special episode of Rattling the Bars, legendary Black Panther and longtime political prisoner Eddie Conway speaks with Mansoor Adayfi, “Detainee No. 441,” who was detained at Guantánamo for 14 years until 2016, about the struggle for survival in the dark heart of American empire.

Eddie Conway reconnects with thinkers and scholars from the 1980 “Say Their Own Word” series he helped organize at Maryland Penitentiary, and discusses how their predictions about surveillance, the prison-industrial complex, and impeding U.S. fascism resonate today.
