A look at how youth justice reform in Wisconsin compares to what’s happening in other states.

Guests:

  • Allison Dikanovic, journalist
  • Ellen Damschen, professor in the Department of Integrative Biology, UW-Madison
  • Denise Kiernan, author, The Last Castle: The Epic Story of Love, Loss, and American Royalty in the Nation’s Largest Home
