Imagine Justice
What does justice look like, beyond the confines of State-administered carceral punishment? In Imagine Justice we hear true stories, told by the people who lived them, of irreparable harm followed by reconciliation.
These stories invite us into the possibility- and reality- of a justice that is co-created by victims, perpetrators, and survivors of violence and their communities. Each of our storytellers navigates toward peace differently, but they all give us insights that can transform the way we think about and approach justice.
Imagine Justice is created by musician, songwriter, and artist Zeo Boekbinder, whose interest in exploring processes of Transformative and Restorative Justice is informed by their time teaching and writing songs alongside incarcerated men at New Folsom Prison, which culminated in the creation of The Prison Music Project.
