We are pleased to publish Volume 25.1, Footnote Forum, Part 2!

In this installment, we present articles written by two currently incarcerated authors who speak to us from their personal experiences. In The Correctional Institute of Nothing, Frank Pruitt writes about his desire for more holistic treatment opportunities in prison, the lack of which he has witnessed for 30 years. Next, in Why Reforms Are not Enough: Justice and Accountability Reimagined, Felix Sitthivong details how abolitionist ideals are vital to many incarcerated people and how reforms fall short of those ideals.

Footnote Forum will publish Part 3 in February 2022. For Part 1, please click here. The full journal is available at CUNY Academic Works. Please see below for individual articles:
