Building Awareness Across Bars (BAAB) Unrecognized

Mission Statement
Building Awareness Across Bars (BAAB), is a Hampshire student group which was organized to raise awareness of the issues surrounding the prison industrial complex. BAAB also supports and takes part in the Prison Book Project and the Prison Birth Project, as well as tutoring at the local Hampshire County Jail in the past. Every two weeks, we also meet in a group for our prisoner pen pal letter writing workshops.

One of our major goals this semester is to continue to compile an archive of articles that address concerns, criticisms, commentary, and coverage of the prison industry. We're asking everyone to find and bring in such an article to our bi-weekly Wednesday night meetings so we can not only discuss and identify what is going on, but so that we can being to piece together the reality of living in a country that has incarcerated every one in one hundred adults.

Inventory
BAAB has no permanent inventory.
