“Support.fm is necessary because we have an unjust bail system that keeps people in prison and detention for up to years at a time before ever seeing trial,” says Blaine O’Neill, one-third of Support.fm, a crowdfunding tool to support, in particular, trans and gender nonconforming (GNC) people in jail, prison and detention.

We talked with them as part of Archinect’s live podcasting event Next Up: Floating Worlds.
