Incarceration Nations: A Journey to Justice in Prisons Around the World

With Baz Dreisinger, an associate professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, a journalist, film and radio producer, and founder of the Prison-to-College-Pipeline.

This illustrated lecture is a first-person odyssey, covering nine countries, beginning in Africa and ending in Europe, investigating the current conditions in prisons worldwide, and looks into the human stories of incarcerated men and women and those who imprison them, creating a jarring, poignant view of a world to which most are denied access, and a rethinking of one of America’s most far-reaching global exports: the modern prison complex.
