The Masculinity Project: Prison 09mins 49sec

Produced by Brittany Evans, Randi McClain, Kristan Woolford and Vandora Williams

Here the students and journalism faculty at Hampton University explore the prison system and its ties to race and class in America; the end result of an unbalanced system which disproportionately influences the lives of young black men in America. Is the road to prison more often treaded by black male soles? And what role does education play in evading the prison trap?
