Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion exploring the intersection of incarceration and censorship, delving into how the penal system is wielded as a tool to silence dissenting voices and stifle freedom of expression. Engage with experts as we examine the nuanced ways in which imprisonment serves as a mechanism of control and censorship in society.
Featuring: Josie Duffy Rice (Journalist, Writer, HLS Graduate), Christopher Blackwell (Incarcerated Journalist & Cofounder of Look2Justice), Gina Clayton-Johnson (Executive Director, Essie Justice Group), and Carlton E Williams (Cornell Law Professor, Criminal Defense & Movement Atty)
