Autorenporträt

Save the Kids from Incarceration is a national grassroots transformative justice organization dedicated to building a movement for alternatives to and the end of the school to prison pipeline and the policing, criminalizing, and incarcerating of all youth through integrated services, hip hop, and lowrider advocacy for systems-impacted BIYOC.
