LACUNY Services for Incarcerated People Roundtable

The Services for Incarcerated People Roundtable provides a forum for librarians who support, or are interested in supporting, library services for incarcerated people to discuss current issues, broaden their understanding, and raise awareness of information barriers within the carceral system. The Roundtable connects CUNY librarians with other librarian-led groups, such as Prison Library Support Network, that provide direct services to incarcerated people, and serves as a resource for CUNY groups such as the UFS Committee on Higher Education in the Prisons and those working in prison education programs. https://lacunysips.commons.gc.cuny.edu/

METRO & PLSN Abolitionist Futures event March 10

  • Please come to our quarterly Abolitionist Futures series on March 10 @ 7:00–8:30 pm ET for a screening of Before Time/After Time, followed by a discussion with the creative team and ensemble members.

    Join Abolitionist Futures for our first meeting of the year featuring special guests from the Arts Justice Safety Coalition. On March 10, we will host a screening and discussion of the film Before Time/After Time. The creative team and cast will join us to share reflections on the film and their experiences and take questions from audience members.

    Before Time/After Time takes audiences on a journey through the lives of nine returned citizens who share fragments of their lives before and after incarceration. The piece is a tribute to their resilience, compassion, and generosity and an example of the communities that the arts can create— communities where self-realization, shared goals, and transformation are made possible. Watch the film trailer here!
