FILM: SOCIAL JUSTICE AT MAYSLES CINEMA

Thursday, November 7th,  7:30PM-10:30PM, Social Justice Showcase: 16 Bars at Maysles Cinema, 343 Lenox Avenue and 127th Street.  16 Bars is a feature length music documentary that offers a rare glimpse at the human stories — and songs — that are locked away in our nation’s jails and prisons. The film follows a unique rehabilitation effort in a Virginia jail that invites inmates to write and record original music. With the U.S. locking up more of its citizens per capita than any other nation on the planet, the music of 16 Bars serves as rare testimony to the raw and messy truth behind the criminal justice system‘s revolving door.  More details and online tickets at the Maysles Cinema site: LINK
