Narrative Research Lab: Free Them All
This month's Narrative Research Lab webinar is tomorrow, Feb. 26th at 2:00pm EST. The COVID pandemic has generated urgency for calls to #FreeThemAll – that is, to release people from all forms of detention and incarceration. Beth Hallowell, Ph.D, will present on an AFSC-led national study to test messages and gauge opinion on abolishing prisons, ending detention/deportation for immigrants convicted of crimes in the U.S., and more.
