WeAreAllCriminals.org is a nonprofit, non-partisan organization that seeks to inspire empathy and ignite social change through personal stories of crime, privilege, justice, and injustice, disrupting the barriers that separate us. We envision a more just and equitable world, where each of us is able to transcend our past and reach our full potential. Your book, by the same title, is about who gets arrested and convicted and why.
The We Are All Criminals book opens your eyes to different areas of privilege and helps people see that it could simply be the kind of day an officer has or straight up racism that could ruin a person’s life. We ARE all criminals, and the people telling their stories in the book either didn’t get caught participating in the criminal activity they described, or they just got a slap on the wrist. Everyone should read this book, there is no way someone could read this and not have learned to have even the smallest bit of empathy for those who are accused or caught and incarcerated.
“One in Four People Has a Criminal Record; Four in Four Have Criminal History.”
