“What art is pushing towards us is this idea of culture change, getting people to kind of see something they didn’t see before, become exposed, and proximate.” — Chloe Cockburn, Open Philanthropy Project
From PBS Newshour:
Seven formerly incarcerated artists received $20,000 each last year through “The Right of Return USA,” a fellowship allowing them to create original artwork exploring ideas around criminal justice reform. The fellows are a diverse group of artists and work in mediums including poetry, hip-hop and performance art. NewsHour Weekend Special Correspondent Alison Stewart reports.
