Justice for a New Day is a 9-week community education course that explores the history, policies, and human impact of incarceration in America. Through presentations by community leaders, researchers, practitioners, and people with lived experience, participants examine the historical roots of mass incarceration, the realities of the criminal legal system today, and the opportunities to build a more just, healthy, and safe future.
Our purpose is to understand how incarceration has shaped our communities, why Wisconsin continues to experience some of the nation's deepest racial disparities in the criminal legal system, and what role each of us can play in creating meaningful change. By grounding ourselves in history, listening to lived experience, and learning from one another, we can move beyond misconceptions toward solutions that strengthen individuals, families, and communities.
