While Massachusetts is only roughly 30 percent Black and Brown, our state prison population is over 60 percent Black and Brown. In Emerson College’s education-in-prison program, the Emerson Prison Initiative (EPI) at MCI-Norfolk, students are over 80 percent Black and Brown. Within that, there is broad racial and ethnic diversity that informs individuals’ college experience in prison. Two EPI alumni will share how their identities informed their journeys as Emerson students.
Panelists: Charles Rosario, EPI Alum; Kevin Keo, EPI Alum
Moderator: Stephen Shane, EPI Site Coordinator, Emerson College
