Flashlights Launch: Jailhouse Lawyer Initiative (JLI) x Zealous

The Jailhouse Lawyer Initiative (JLI) in partnership with Zealous will be launching Flashlights — a first of its kind digital archive that introduces the world to jailhouse lawyers through a powerful collection of letters, poems and art created by JLI’s jailhouse lawyer members. The launch will be a historic gathering of jailhouse lawyers, in dialogue with artists, educators, advocates, and more. The launch will be an immersive, inclusive space where attendees will be encouraged to explore the archive through audio and video recording stations. The event will also host an interactive panel of leading justice-impacted advocates and allies to discuss the history and impact of jailhouse lawyering, while also imagining a more inclusive future rooted in dignity, respect, and recognition.
