Dear John,
One in six people in prison – nearly 200,000 people nationwide – are serving life sentences, according to a new report [[link removed]] by The Sentencing Project. Life imprisonment in the United States has proven to be a deeply flawed crime control method that disproportionately impacts communities of color, particularly Black Americans.
Please join us to discuss the latest research on the number of people serving life sentences and hear from a panel of advocates on why it’s past time to end life imprisonment and invest in proven community safety solutions.
Panelists :
* Celeste Barry [[link removed]] : Program Associate at The Sentencing Project and co-author of the report, A Matter of Life: The Scope and Impact of Life and Long Term Imprisonment in the United States [[link removed]]


* Bill Underwood [[link removed]] : Senior Fellow at The Sentencing Project and life sentence survivor


* Jason Hernandez [[link removed]] : Executive Director of La Tiendita, The Sentencing Project Board Member and life sentence survivor


* Robert Saleem Holbrook [[link removed]] : Executive Director of the Abolitionist Law Center and life sentence survivor
Moderator : Nicole D. Porter, Senior Director of Advocacy at The Sentencing Project
