EQUITY AND INEQUALITY IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM
A Book and Speaker Series
About:
In the Fall semester (2022-2023), Ohio University faculty, students, and the surrounding community are invited to meet throughout the semester to investigate social justice issues of equity and inequity in the criminal justice system.
This project includes a book discussion group, film screening, speakers and panelists, and the collecting of stories for the Story Box. Students are engaged as organizers and facilitators, as well as participants and volunteers.
The project uses the book: The Sun Does Shine: How I found Freedom on Death Row (2018) by Anthony Ray Hinton as an anchor text to invite deeper conversations around issues surrounding diversity, equity, and justice.
Social Justice activities run from September 12 through November 15.
