FIRE ESCAPE: The Crash (e01)

This week, BAY MADE is proud to share episodes of Fire Escape, which tells the remarkable story of Amika Mota, an incarcerated firefighter who fights fires from behind bars — and pushes against a system intent on burying her under the weight of her worst moment.

In today’s episode titled "The Crash," Anna explores how Amika Mota went from a midwife and mother of three to a prisoner inside one of the largest women’s prisons on Earth.
