Please join us for this very special "Ethics in Your World" Book Series event at the Cambridge Forum, where Danielle Allen will discuss her new memoir, Cuz: The Life and Times of Michael A. and examine the plight of young black offenders in America.
Event details: Cambridge Forum is pleased to present Danielle Allen, James Bryant Conant University Professor and Director of the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard, to discuss her new memoir “CUZ”. The book documents the events which conspired to cause the untimely death of her young cousin, Michael on the streets of Los Angeles in 2009. The book looks at how a “deadly double helix” of narcotics and street gangs ultimately entrapped her cousin, as with countless others, leading to his incarceration and death. Allen asks if the current justice system only perpetuates the injustices it is meant to address?
Join us for this free public discussion, which begins at 7 pm. The event will be followed by a book signing. All are welcome.
