Parole Justice Is Racial Justice Advocacy Day

9:00 a.m.–3:30 p.m.
John Sexton Lounge 200, Furman Hall
245 Sullivan Street NY ,10012 (view map)
This event has passed.

February is Black History Month, and data has shown that incarcerated Black and Brown people are denied parole more regularly than White people. Passing Elder Parole and Fair + Timely Parole is about working to reverse the impact that mass incarceration has on Black and Brown communities and promoting racial justice. Join organizers and community members for a day of meetings with legislators and press conferences about these bills.

RSVP here!

NOTE: The events will take place on Zoom, but EPIC's Parole Advocacy Project will host this in-person space so we can join the meetings together. Feel free to pop in and out throughout the day!
