Westchester Library
The Westchester Library System presented a series of six public programs called Community Conversations: Criminal Justice, Yesterday and Today, in 2017. In collaboration with the Sing Sing Prison Museum and funded by the Westchester Community Foundation, each event included a presentation on the history of rehabilitation and reform at Sing Sing Correctional Facility, followed by a panel discussion linking historical perspectives to present-day developments and challenges.
Brent Glass, Director Emeritus of the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution, moderated the events. Additionally, Dana White, the Ossining Village Historian will provide a historical review of Sing Sing Prison and its impact on the community and criminal justice.
The Panel Discussions were with service providers, ex-offenders and distinguished lecturers and included interactive conversations about the past and future of the American criminal justice system.
