First Friday Forum on The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness

Cherry Steinwender the Executive Director of the Center for the Healing of Racism. She will lead us in the discussion and show some video clips from Michelle Alexander's book on this subject.

We have prided ourselves on the advances and victories achieved in the struggle for civil rights. However our understanding and action are now needed to advance civil rights in this emerging area of concern.

Join the discussion 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 4, University of St. Thomas and learn more about the new Jim Crow.
