Module 1
The Carceral State & Educational Justice
Volunteers learn about the carceral state, the set of interlocking institutions, logics, and practices that produce mass incarceration and other forms of punitive control. This helps volunteers understand the broader contexts of the carceral state that produce the need for educational justice. Volunteers learn how the carceral state framework shapes our approach to educational justice and how they can participate in the larger movement to support freedom dreams of currently and formerly incarcerated people.
