What's happening here
About 40 folks got together at the Chicago Freedom School on January 30 to kick off a joint series of community workshops hosted by the Freedom School and Project NIA on the Prison Industrial Complex. In this six-month workshop series, youth and adults are exploring the history, impacts, and current state of mass incarceration in the United States. This website is going to archive some of the materials from these workshops, and hopes to provide folks who didn’t have the privilege to attend this series access to some of the discussions we engaged in. Let me know if you’ve got any info you think should be included, or other info sources that we should connect this to.
