Overcoming Stereotypes and Incarceration Presentation

November 15, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 12:00 am

Event Navigation

Brooklyn-based audio producer Ryerson will explore stereotypes and mass incarceration as documented by media, complementing the visual perspective of The Divide, Morgantown-based Multimedia Producer and photojournalist Raymond Thompson’s exhibit of photographs on display in the Downtown Campus Library Atrium. Ryerson partnered with Thompson to document a 2015 trip by Virginian families as they drove together in a van from urban centers to rural Appalachian prisons to visit incarcerated loved-ones. Parking is available in the Mountainlair parking garage, and several city parking lots found around the Downtown Campus. See parking and accessibility at https://lib.wvu.edu/about/directions/.
