May 17: Lean In to Eve Abrams’ Listening Party and Conversation

The Louisiana Humanities Center hosts a listening party and conversation on the latest episode of “Unprisoned: Stories From The System,” an ongoing series of stories exploring the ways mass incarceration affects families, communities and notions of justice. “Unprisoned” producer Eve Abrams, a past contributor to Louisiana Cultural Vistas, will discuss her latest story about the reactions of New Orleans charter school students to security and discipline procedures in their schools. The event takes place from 6-8 p.m., and is free and open to the public.

“Unprisoned” is supported by New Orleans Public Radio and Finding America, a national initiative produced by AIR, the Association of Independents in Radio, Incorporated, and with financial support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the Wyncote Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
