MLaw ACLU, Wolverine Street Law, and Crim Law Society have teamed up with the fine folks over at the LSA's Prison Creative Arts Project to bring you a very special guest this Thursday. We are proud to welcome to the law school Kerry Myers, the critically acclaimed journalist and former editor of an award-winning news magazine, a photographer and graphic artist whose works have been displayed and published across the nation, and a former twenty-six year inmate at Louisiana State Penitentiary, better known as "Angola." Kerry will be speaking about his experiences in Angola after he was convicted in what was later called "one of the most bizarre cases in the history of Jefferson Parish" (which includes parts of the New Orleans suburbs), as well as some of the lessons that he's learned about our criminal justice during his life. If you would like to learn more about Kerry, check out his writing for the Marshall Project and the Columbia Journalism Review. Free lunch will be served those who attend!
