Violent crime rates today are within 1% of those in 1970. The percentage of Americans incarcerated for crime, however, has skyrocketed, with the United States now leading the world in both the percentage of our people and absolute numbers of people behind bars.
What are the best alternatives to incarceration? How can the United States reform its criminal justice system in ways beneficial to the full diversity of our people?
Eastern State Penitentiary partners with the World Affairs Council to present a panel discussion of distinguished thought-leaders in the field.
