From the series Uncuffed:
Mother’s Day is marketed as a celebration of unconditional love, but many of us have complicated relationships with our moms, involving lots of different emotions. Uncuffed producers at Solano State Prison talked about what the day brings up for them.
"Even though I’ve been in here as long as I have, she still sees me for who I really am."Mayito Guzman
This discussion was hosted and produced by bf thames, Orlando Johnson, Steve Drown, and Mayito Guzman. It was edited by Andrew Stelzer and Eli Wirtschafter, and mixed by James Rowlands.
