They will cover political influences on the prison system and socio-economic factors of being a convicted felon, including it impacts on the African-American’s family life. Furthermore, we will have a guest speaker, Nina Graves from the Law Enforcement Against Prohibition organization (LEAP) to discuss about the war on drugs and different approaches on how to rehabilitate and uplift convicts.
