Join this event for an in-depth look at the role profits play in America's criminal legal system, a $445 billion-a-year industry.
Bianca Tylek, executive director of Worth Rises, joins Jesse Crosson, author of The Best Part of Prison: Power of Second Chances and Reclaiming Life Out of Darkness, for a time to truly count the cost of incarcerating nearly 2 million people in thousands of jails and prisons, often at a profit.
We'll dig into why private prisons are not the only ones to blame for financial exploitation. The entire arc of the system -- from arrest to incarceration to reentry -- is riddled with ways of extracting wealth from the most vulnerable.
How can we care for our neighbors, speak truth, and work against dehumanization?
Come for a time where Bianca and Jesse share their work and wisdom, followed by a Q&A where you as an audience member can engage them.
