When the PGP launched our HBCU Forward Initiative in 2021, we argued that our efforts to recruit, elevate, and support Black volunteer tutors were important because those most harmed by the criminal legal system, should be the ones leading efforts to change it. For this webinar we highlighted the educational justice work of four Black-led student organizations from three Historically Black Colleges. While many college students are aware of the system that funnels people from defunded schools and communities to incarceration, these student organizations are trying to do something about it.
