Transformative Justice Collective (TJC) are a collective founded on the principles of transformative justice, and committed to seeking the reform of Singapore’s criminal punishment system, starting with the abolition of the death penalty. They’ve been important figures in pushing the Singapore government to grant clemency for Nagaenthran Dharmalingam, who was unfortunately executed yesterday. In this episode, we’re joined by one of the founding members and organizers of the TJC.
