Description
Grounded in lived realities of criminalization and imprisonment, this course is offered at the correctional sites on various topics. Classes bring together campus-enrolled and incarcerated students. Emerging out of the American Inside-Out model, the Canadian Walls to Bridges Program (W2B) engages with Freirian principles and Indigenous pedagogy, and anti-racist practice. The course is taught by W2B - trained University of Winnipeg faculty. Students are interviewed before they are given permission to take the course. Campus-enrolled students travel to a corrections facility for each class and must have clearance.
Restrictions
Instructor Permission Required.
Note
This course may be repeated for credit when the topic varies. Restriction: Students must receive clearance from the corrections facility where the course is being held.
