How to Be a Better Ally: The Impact of the Justice System

This co-facilitated workshop series focuses on various underrepresented and/or marginalized populations. Our goal of the series is to provide UMBC community members with the basic practices for allyship, specifically for the highlighted population.

This session will analyze the impacts of the justice system on people who are incarcerated/formerly incarcerated, their families, and their communities. There will also be discussion about prison abolitionist movements, the privatization of prisons, and prison education programs.

All undergrads, grads, staff, and faculty are encouraged to attend! Need to request disability-based accommodations or have any questions? Contact Campus Life's Mosaic at mosaic@umbc.edu.
