Why punishment continues long after a prison sentence ends
In short: Sociologist Reuben Jonathan Miller explores the enduring impact of mass incarceration on the nearly 20 million Americans living with a felony record and the power of radical hospitality.
This video examines the systemic aftershocks faced by formerly incarcerated individuals in the United States. Miller argues that for those with a felony record, the legal punishment is often just the beginning of a lifelong struggle against punitive societal policies.
By sharing stories of those who have lived through the system, the discussion challenges us to rethink the criminal justice system. The goal is to move toward a model of radical hospitality that creates a place in society for everyone, including those who have caused harm.
