Why I take my college students to prison | Ann Frost | TEDxUofW
When society pictures incarcerated individuals, the public imagination often defaults to dangerous people locked in cages, far beyond rehabilitation. University professor and educator Ann Frost challenges this damaging stereotype by bringing her college students inside prison walls to participate in a shared book club. In this moving talk, she reveals how stripping away the artificial barriers of the criminal legal system to engage in mutual learning fosters profound compassion and understanding. Discover why expanding access to prison education is essential, not just for reducing recidivism, but for reminding us that we are all simply people who can learn from each other. Ann Frost is a Full Time Lecturer in Law Societies and Justice (LSJ) and Sociology.Ann’s research focuses on state sentencing policies during the War on Drugs, and the issues for racial and ethnic minorities that arose from these policies. Her research also addresses the racial language, both explicit and implicit, employed by state legislators and others who advocated for or against the War on Drugs.
Ann is a lawyer who practiced criminal defense as a public defender for 15 years. This professional experience fueled her interest in studying the political, legal, and sociological issues that impact the American criminal justice system and the individuals who become involved in it. She continues to research these issues and to enrich her classes with these studies.
Ann teaches classes in LSJ such as Miscarriages of Justice, and Punishment: Theory and Practice, and classes in Sociology such as Law and Society. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Receive SMS online on sms24.me
