Racial Justice & Equity (RJE) Talk Series: Ending Prison Slavery and the School-to-Prison Pipeline

Join us to hear from justice impacts parents, students, and educators working to end slavery in Minnesota. 

The End Slavery in MN Coalition is a group of activists, justice-impacted individuals, and allies attempting to remove the slavery clause from our prisons and state constitution. As written, Article 1, Section 2 of Minnesota’s constitution allows for people to be treated as slaves for punishment of a crime, stating, “There shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude in the state otherwise than as punishment for a crime of which the party has been convicted.”
