Info

In America, 80 million people in America have an arrest record. That’s 1 in 3 working age Americans. Most people want to work and thrive in America. Yet a conviction background carries thousands of collateral consequences that create massive barriers to equal employment and participation in society. Millions of people carry this scarlet letter through life each day, facing a “civil death” that inhibits their ability to contribute to the economy and society. Collectively these factors form one of the leading civil & human rights issues of our time. America has invested in a structural and cultural system that relies on punishment. What if we invested in people not punishment?

Background Audience Reviews

Tockinit not horrible nor great
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
