The Education Justice Project and the Cline Center for Advanced Social Research are co-hosting a discussion of the fourth episode of the documentary "Crime and Punishment in America," which centers "modern systems, 21st-century mass incarceration, and the ongoing search for the meaning of justice."
The series will air from November 16-19th on PBS and will be available to stream for four weeks on PBS digital platforms. Attendees are invited to view episode 4 prior to our discussion, which will include formerly incarcerated individuals sharing their perspectives.

This is a hybrid event that will take place from 4:30 to 6:00 pm Thursday, December 3rd, 2026. Snacks will be provided for attendees.
The discussion will be located on Zoom and in-person at Rm 216 of the University YMCA (1001 S. Wright St., Champaign, IL 61820).
