Black History Month: Film Screening
848: Criminalization of America is a criminal justice documentary focusing on U.S. code 848, otherwise known as the Kingpin charge. This charge calls for “Drug Kingpins” — even non-violent ones — to spend life in prison. Although the laws have changed, some non-violent offenders must stay in federal prison after serving more than 30 years. Join us at Buffalo State University to delve into the complexities of the film via a panel discussion and screening.
