The Center for Justice and Union Theological Seminary are pleased to present the inaugural Beyond the Bars film and discussion series. The documentary series has been carefully curated to stimulate discussion on the expansive injustices of the US carceral system and how incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people, their families, and allies are fighting for freedom and dignity before during, and after incarceration. A discussion panel of filmmakers and directly impacted leaders from the movement to end incarceration will follow each documentary.
