Thank you to all who joined us for Power of Connection last night! Congratulations to our honorees Thompson Coburn LLP, Greater Chatham Initiative and Janet Hoffman, Katten! Thank you, Skadden, Arps for always supporting this event and for hosting. And lastly, thank you to all our sponsors!
Today, on Nelson Mandela’s birthday (July 18), we're joining Unlock The Box Campaign for 'States of Solitary' in DC! This artivism event will combine artistic expression with action to amplify the ongoing humanitarian crisis that is solitary confinement.
We are so proud to partner with Unlock The Box Campaign Restore Justice Foundation and UPLC Chicago to honor Nelson Mandela’s legacy by fighting to end prolonged solitary confinement, a desolating form of torture.
We are grateful to have been able to join Unlock The Box Campaign for the first States of Solitary artivism event. It was an honor to be alongside advocates and solitary survivors from across the country. Thank you to all who shared their stories and wisdom! instagram.com/reel/C9uso3kRQ…
