Building a Movement to End Mass Incarceration
Professor Forman will explore the complex relationship between race, class, and the American criminal justice system in a new and original light. He will discuss his best-selling and critically acclaimed book,
Locking Up Our Own: Crime and Punishment in Black America, which was named one of the best 10 books of 2017 by
The New York Times and longlisted for the National Book Award. He will also discuss what we can do to end mass incarceration and replace it with a criminal justice system that is more humane and restorative.
