Highly recommend watching 13th on Netflix to better understand ECOC’s mission to dismantle the cradle-to-prison pipeline.

Quotes from the movie 13th that stuck out pt.1 “The United States is home to 5% of the world’s population, yet has 25% of the worlds inmates” meaning 1/4 of the world’s population are locked up in the U.S.

Quotes from the movie 13th that stuck out pt.2 “The U.S. has a prison population of 2.3 million, which is the highest incarceration rate in the world!” “The lifetime likelihood of imprisonment for white men is 1 in 17, yet for black men it is 1 in 3”

Happy Juneteenth everyone!

Seeing as it is back to school season, we would like to remind everyone of an important quote by Nelson Mandela to keep in mind this year: “Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world.” Happy learning!
