60 Seconds Remaining
60 Seconds Remaining is not just an audio series—it’s a reckoning, a witness, and a lifeline. Guided by intimate conversations with host Julian Wilson, a multimedia movement journalist, the series opens a portal into the lives of transgender people navigating the brutal confines of incarceration and the uncertain terrain of what it means to return “home.”
Shaped by more than four years of Julian answering phone calls—moments of crisis and fragments of hope—from inside prison walls. Through these conversations, 60 Seconds Remaining becomes both archive and act of resistance, illuminating the layered realities trans people face in carceral systems: isolation, resilience, violence, tenderness, and the fragile threads of connection that persist despite it all.
But this is not a passive listening experience. It is an invitation—perhaps even a challenge. Julian urges listeners to step beyond awareness and into relationship, to help build networks of care that stretch across and beyond prison walls. The series insists that solidarity is not abstract; it is practiced, intentional, and necessary.
At its core, 60 Seconds Remaining speaks directly to system-impacted trans people, affirming that their stories are not only worth telling, but worth holding, honoring, and fighting for. And it leaves the listener with a quiet but persistent question: how are you supporting our system impacted communities getting free?
