OPEN CALL FOR CLEMENCY
This project is a digital exhibition of visual artwork created by currently incarcerated artists dealing with the deadly effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and unsanitary living conditions, capped by a virtual programming series that brought together city officials, legal experts, local organizations, grassroots organizers, and more to testify to the power of arts to influence change and the need for mass clemency in the name of public health. |

132 Calls
After the death of her husband in Cook County Jail, Cassandra Greer-Lee Cassandra teamed up with a range of local visual artists, directors, and performers to create 132 Calls. This project is an animated three-part short film series that details deadly conditions in Chicago’s Cook County Jail and one activist’s efforts to save her husband and fight for justice. |

VIRAL MONOLOGUES
This project is a partnership between TCA, 24 Hour Plays and several other organizations culminating in twelve filmed monologues that raise public awareness of the conditions of incarceration amidst the pandemic. Each monologue was linked to a direct action step for viewers to take that and connect to the advocacy requests from the individuals with direct experience. |
