Tribal Justice: Film Screening and Discussion

  • 5:30-7:30 pm
  • Ames Courtroom, Austin Hall, Harvard Law School, Cambridge, MA

In Tribal Justice, two Native American judges reach back to traditional concepts of justice in order to reduce incarceration rates, foster greater safety for their communities and create a more positive future for youth. By addressing the root causes of crime, they are modeling restorative systems that are working.

Film screening followed by remarks by the film’s executive producer Ruth Cowan, HGSE student and FIERCE member Morgan Christopher, and HLS student and NALSA member Chad Mata.
