Take Action: Call AMC to Demand the Removal of "Love During Lockup"

  • Join us in urging AMC Networks to remove Love During Lockup from their programming lineup.

    This show exploits and sensationalizes the lives of incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals and their loved ones. It perpetuates harmful stereotypes, stigmatizes marginalized communities, and normalizes the prison-industrial complex.

    Contact AMC directly at 212-324-8500 and make your voice heard.

    Phone Script:
    “Hello, my name is [Your Name], and I’m calling from [Your City, District, or Community]. I strongly urge AMC and its leadership to cancel the show Love During Lockup.

    This program is exploitative and perpetuates damaging stereotypes about incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals and their families. It reinforces stigma that makes reintegration into society more difficult while profiting from their struggles. Love During Lockup undermines efforts for meaningful criminal justice reform and fuels harmful perceptions of incarceration.

    I ask AMC Networks to act responsibly and remove this harmful content from their programming. Thank you for your time.”

    Make the call today and stand against exploitative media!
