Ep 3: Bloodlines

BIRDS EYE VIEW

“When they said that I was coming to prison at the watch house, I got to speak to my mum. She was in prison before me and she said just go up to these people and tell them that I’m her daughter and everything will be okay.”

What’s it like to be in prison with your mum? And what’s it like to be a mum in prison? You’ll find out in this episode, all about family.

Bloodlines is the third episode of BIRDS EYE VIEW, a magazine-style podcast that gives you a new perspective on women in prison. BIRDS EYE VIEW was co-created with women inside the Darwin Correctional Centre and is presented by StoryProjects.
