Watch "Breaking Down the Box," which examines the use of solitary confinement in U.S. prisons.
This 40-minute documentary explores the mental health, racial justice, and human rights implications of this inhumane practice. And it serves as a call to action for communities of faith to engage in the growing nationwide movement for restorative alternatives to isolated confinement that prioritize rehabilitation, therapeutic interventions, and recovery.
AFSC Healing Justice staffers Laura Magnani and Jerry Elster are among those interviewed.
Produced by filmmaker Matthew Gossage. More resources at National Religious Campaign Against Torture.
