First Thursday Documentary
Film
BROKEN ON ALL SIDES:
Race,
Mass incarceration
&
New visions for Criminal Justice in the US
This compelling documentary shows how the war on drugs and
racial inequities within our criminal justice system have led to mass
incarceration of people of color. The documentary centers around the theory put
forward by Michelle Alexander (who appears in the movie)that mass incarceration
has become The New Jim Crow. This documentary aims to answer questions and
provoke questions on an issue walled off from the public’s scrutiny.
There will be discussion after the
screening.
