And the Cradle Will Fall: A Childfree Look at True Crime

Is it nature or nurture? That is the eternal true crime question. Jenn, aka Childfreesista, has never been able to turn away from the dark side. While many girls of her generation were reading books like The Baby-Sitters Club, she was buried in books by Robert Cormier, the Stephen King of Young Adult literature. Then came Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood and Alice Sebold’s memoir Lucky. Her fascination with exploring what true crime stories can teach us about our human condition was born. 
 
In this premier episode, Childfreesista introduces a much-needed perspective that challenges the current pronatalist approach to true crime. 
 
Childfreesista is an award-winning poet, short story author, and essayist holding a BA in Anthropology and a Masters in Library and Information Science. She is a librarian and Jamaican American atheist raising two pandemic puppies in the DC Metro Area.
