SUMMARY:Political Prisoners Event (HOPE/BSU collab)
DESCRIPTION:Join HOPE in Prisoners Solidarity Month from January 13th to February 10th! \nWe aim to create a month of intentional programming to uplift voices from inside prisons\, jails\, and detention centers and spread awareness on the political struggles of those behind bars. We hope to shed light on inhumane practices within carceral institutions\, and uplift how people are resisting through community\, education\, and organizing. As practitioners of Transformative Justice\, we believe in addressing cycles of harm and violence and not solely responding to them\, which means supporting grassroots education on the inside and outside. \nWe are collaborating with other RSOs on campus to look at mass incarceration through an intersectional lens. Exploring the ways that our current criminal legal system exploits and weaponizes certain identities before\, during\, and after incarceration. \nWe welcome you to join us during our weeks of solidarity in whatever capacity you are able to and work with us to build a future to break all cages and free all prisoners across the globe. \nIf you have any questions feel free to email hopeuwseattle@gmail.com.

Who are the winners and losers? \n\nAhead of the presidential inauguration\, Professor Francis will reflect on the lessons of the 2024 election and will point to possibilities to reimagine a more just future.  \nAll Honors Huskies are invited to join Honors Program Director Stephanie Smallwood for this Town Hall event.  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER: Dr. Megan Ming Francis is the Delsman Associate Professor of Political Science and an Associate Professor of Law\, Societies\, and Justice at the University of Washington. She specializes in the study of American politics\, with broad interests in Black political activism\, constitutional law\, critical philanthropy\, and the post-civil war South and is the author of the award-winning book\, Civil Rights and the Making of the Modern American State.  \nMing Francis also spoke in Honors’ 2018 Global Challenges/Interdisciplinary Thinking event on “The Question of Rights.” \n\nThis cultural outing is supported by the UW Graduate Schools Public Lecture Series.
