We need to talk about prisons | Sara Hyde | TEDxExeter

How many people does each of us know that have been to prison? Why is it that the answer is “lots” for some of us and “none” for others? Who ends up in our prisons? Other human beings. What does justice look like for them?

Sara Hyde is a leading left-wing thinker on women and the criminal justice system. She has worked in prisons for six years and currently works with young women leaving custody. Sara sits on a MoJ board that appoints magistrates and contributes to policy discussions in the sector. Her first career was in theatre and she still occasionally writes and performs with Wonder arts.

Sara tweets about prisons, justice, arts, feminism and faith at @SaraKHyde.

TEDxExeter 2015 took the long view both back into the past and ahead into the future. We asked our speakers to help us understand the challenges that face us now - how they shape the way we live, make decisions, and innovate.
