Cash bail isn’t about safety it’s about money. In this FreeHer episode, Andrea James sits with Jasmine Borges (Massachusetts Bail Fund) and Rena Kafa Johnson (FWD.us) to break down how pretrial detention punishes poverty, why “dangerousness hearings” expand incarceration, and what actually keeps communities safe. We talk real numbers, real harms, and real solutions, including bail funds, clemency, and bringing our people home.Massachusetts Bail Fund: https://www.massbailfund.org/Families for Justice as Healing: https://www.justiceashealing.org/Learn about the FreeHer Campaign: https://www.nationalcouncil.us/clemency-works
