John –
We wanted to make sure you didn’t
miss this. We’re co-hosting an event with Mother Jones and Ben &
Jerry’s in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday – and we want you to join us!
We want to make sure cost does not keep anyone out of the
room! So we have a select
number of tickets for allies and are prioritizing access for people
who have been impacted by the incarceration industry.
Please send us a note in reply to this email and we
will do our best to get you a ticket, pending
availability.
This event will feature #cut50
co-founder Van Jones, our new national director Michael Mendoza,
author and poet Reginald Dwayne Betts, formerly incarcerated
entrepreneur and Flikshop founder Marcus Bullock, Georgia Dignity
Ambassador Pamela Winn, our National Organizer Louis L. Reed, and many
more.
Our panel of star-studded
advocates, almost all of whom are formerly incarcerated or directly
impacted, will discuss the evolution of criminal justice reform in
America, detailing how they’ve turned passion into action – and
won.
Are you directly impacted by America’s criminal justice
system and interested in attending? Reply to this email to be a part
of this – even if you’re on a tight budget, we’ll help get you
there!
