A solo performance by critically acclaimed poet, author, lawyer, and 2021 MacArthur Fellowship winner Reginald Dwayne Betts. "Felon: An American Washi Tale" weaves traditional theater, poetry, fine art, and Japanese paper making aesthetic principles, unwrapping the disturbing ways that prison touches us all.
Q&A to follow the show. After the performance and Q&A, Betts will be available for a book signing.
This is a free but ticketed event.
Sponsored by the Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study and the Notre Dame Initiative on Race and Resilience.
