Reimagine Justice Pittsburgh
FREE TRAINING. FREE GET OUT THE VOTE CONCERT. CANVASS THE COMMUNITY.
We are at a critical moment in our country’s history. The upcoming presidential, state and local races will impact our future, our living and working conditions, and our ability to organize for the issues that matter to our communities.
That is why we are excited to invite you to REIMAGINE JUSTICE PITTSBURGH--a three day event on November 3,4 and 5 where we’ll discuss what is at stake in the 2016 elections, rally our communities around the issue of mass incarceration and economic justice, and canvass our community in order to Get Out the Vote in November. Join us! Details below on each of the events.
REIMAGINE JUSTICE PITTSBURGH EVENTS INCLUDE:
NOVEMBER 3RD: CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM AND ELECTION PROTECTION WORKSHOP
Everyday across America, men and women on the job hunt are finding their paths blocked by hiring barriers because of an arrest or conviction from the past. Communities of color around the country are over criminalized and over incarcerated. Able-bodied men, women and youth are entering the revolving door that is our criminal justice system and their ability to work and live with all the rights of American citizenship are stripped away from them-- and their right to vote.
Join us on a Criminal Justice Reform and Election Protection Workshop where we’ll debunk the most common myths about our Criminal Justice system and understand the history, growth and impact of incarceration in our communities. It’s time to make a different and protect our votes and our families. RSVP TODAY
