Featuring MC Valonda Calloway and led by IPMW’s Chaplain Sarah Jobe, IPMW Board member Jean Suber, Erin Kinlock, Jennifer Green-Lee, Cassandra Payne, and Jessica Trevena, this night will feature songs, poetry, and story-telling as we all learn to make “prison lasagna” and the “state cakes” that women make for each other’s birthdays while doing time. As with all birthdays in prison, this will be an evening in which grief and joy sit side by side, learning from women how to honor both the losses that are multiplied by prisons and the creative resilience that abounds in those who are locked up.
