we need your support
Dear Friends and Partners,
We would like to ask you to consider making a donation to The Confined Arts. Your support is essential now more than ever, as we have recently expanded our team to increase our capacity to take on new projects and support the efforts of our partners and network of artists. Click here to Donate.
The litany of recent acts of racially motivated violence and candor of white extremism have highlighted the continued presence of systemic racism in this country. The racial injustices executed at every level of our “justice system” have sparked great pain and vicarious trauma for Black people. As a group of individuals who care for each other and our communities above all else, The Confined Arts is formed with the explicit purpose of amplifying and centering the voices of people directly affected by the criminal legal system and relentlessly and strategically pushing for systemic change. Our work is based upon the principle that the voices of those who have direct experience with the justice system are in the best position to inform harm reductive change. We have a moral imperative to uplift the voices, perspectives, and visions of those in our country who have been systematically oppressed and silenced for generations.
Through the Covid-19 pandemic and the recent racial uprisings, The Confined Arts, has responded by continuing to work through innovative research and advocacy-based projects such as, Post Traumatic Prison Disorder and by testifying to the insufficiencies of the criminal legal system at a range of public events. True to TCA’s founding motivation, we’ve also continued to create art that challenges and changes the narrative of the criminal justice system through The Viral Monologues, Open Call for Clemency and 132 Calls.
