The Ballad of Dena & Andrea
Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2395800/open_sms] In this final episode of the Ballad of Dena & Andrea I read a bit from the old bible and wonder about our current institutions for mental health and our sick carceral system. I speak with two folks who've worked in various positions as educators and facilitators in restorative justice, sex education, and art programs. I'll mention the fund that Andrea started with her lawyer to support mental health of young mothers. It is linked below as well... The song is a fictional POV from Andrea inside the Kerrville, TX mental institution.
