“American Violet”- Investigating the Criminal Justice System Film Series
About the event
This spring WSU Diversity Education is organizing a film series that critically examines the criminal justice system. Our fourth and final film, “American Violet,” tells the story of a young African American mother navigating the criminal justice system after she is arrested and falsely charged with dealing drugs. Please join us for this film and a critical conversation about the criminalization of poverty, the justice system, and a young woman’s fight for her life.
