Inspired by Laura Bell Bundy’s and Shea Carter's album of the same name, Women Of Tomorrow is a musical podcast that explores issues women are facing today, examines the history of those issues and provides solutions for moving forward. Out of the ashes of the 2016 presidential election, came the most powerful women’s movement since the 1970’s. Women’s voices raised in unity to express their fear over losing all they had fought for and their desire for equal rights. #Metoo.Each episode will feature a song that sets the stage for our topic such as: Breaking the glass ceiling, ‘doing it all,’Equal pay, unrealistic beauty standards, obsession with social media, domestic violence, pitting ourselves against each other, domain over our own bodies, sexual assault, the new rules of masculinity, motherhood, pregnancy, the mental load and what it means to be ‘a good guy.’ We cannot set the stage for our future if we don’t understand our history. Just two women and one guest working to lower the high cost of equality one song at a time. We may not change your mind, but we will make you think.Part of the Broadway Podcast Network.

#16 - Decarceration: The Heartbreaking Reality of Women in Prisons and How You Can Be A Part of the Change
Women are disproportionately disadvantaged in our prison and judicial system. Incarcerated women are more likely to face sexual assault, they are often denied resources like adequate healthcare, and they are often unable to get treatment for mental illness. Today’s conversation is a glimpse into an issue that doesn’t often make headlines.
Rev. Sharon White-Harrigan and Guisela Marroquín, our guests today, are experts on this issue. The New York Women’s Foundation has funded the Women’s Community Justice Association for years and the two-work side by side to protect women and create change. Hopefully YOU are changed by what you hear and want to help restore our communities and support the changes we need to see in our justice system to create fair, just, and equitable alternatives to incarceration.
Produced by Dori Berinstein and Alan Seales.
