This issue also features Michael Fischer’s interview with Eric Blackmon as part of his interview series ‘Smiling Behind the Sun’—through conversations with formerly-incarcerated artists and their allies, this series celebrates the ways in which an artistic, creative life can transmute the impact and redefine the legacy of an experience within the Prison Industrial Complex.
