Experience a night of reckoning at Eastern State Penitentiary as we host a special screening of the Oscar-nominated documentary, The Alabama Solution. This film centers the brave voices of men enduring systemic abuse and corruption within the Alabama prison system. At Eastern State, our mission is to champion human dignity for all. By shedding light on these deep-rooted injustices, we hope to spark the dialogue necessary to dismantle them.
