Lethal Injustice: Standing Up Against Prison Build-Up & the Death Penalty 30 March 2011 Grand Valley State University Grand Rapids, Michigan
Amnesty International, S.A.F.E. (Students Advocating Freedom & Equality), and Nouveaux Socialistes have teamed up to bring a 3 speaker panel to look at what's behind our massive prison build-up, why so many people of color are locked up and what we can do about it.
From death rows to super-maxes, over 2.3 million men and women sit behind bars today. "Lethal Injustice" speakers are organizing on the front-lines of the fight against criminal injustice, taking a stand against the racist, prison build-up and harsh sentencing like the death penalty.
The 3 Speakers are
* Victoria Law - author, Resistance Behind Bars: The Struggles of Incarcerated Women * Mark Clements - former police torture victim, sentenced to life without parole as a juvenile * Randi Jones - activist, organizer, and member of the Campaign to End the Death Penalty
