About This Lesson

The United States has the biggest immigrant prison system in the world, yet most Americans are unaware of the conditions found in immigrant prisons, and the mistreatment many detained immigrants endure. Brave New Films has created this series —Immigrant Prisons—to change that.

With the current surge of anti-immigrant rhetoric, stock in the immigrant prison industry is skyrocketing and more ICE agents are being hired to patrol communities and lock up immigrants. This means more people are being detained every day and forced to live for days, weeks, and even months at a time in unsustainable conditions, all while giant corporations turn a profit.

Please take a moment to complete this brief questionnaire before watching Immigrant Prisons. As a nonprofit organization, your feedback makes it possible for us to report our impact and secure funding to continue to provide free educational resources and films for your school, house of worship, group meeting, or organization: http://bit.ly/PRE_ImPrisons

After you've watched Immigrant Prisons please take a moment to complete this second questionnaire: http://bit.ly/POST_ImPrisons
