DESCRIPTION:Join us for an in-depth conversation with Emily Galvin-Almanza 
 (SLS ’10) as she discusses her powerful new book\, The Price of Mercy\, 
 which Michelle Alexander calls “searing\, compassionate\, and utterly ne
 cessary.”\n\nIn The Price of Mercy\, Emily Galvin Almanza weaves hard da
 ta and unforgettable stories\, dark humor and compelling evidence to tell 
 us the truth about what’s really going on behind the closed doors of Ame
 rica’s criminal courts. She shows us how jails actually increase future 
 crime\, the dirty tricks police use to make millions in overtime pay\, how
  a man could spend decades in prison because scientists mistook dog hair f
 or his own\, the perverse incentives that push prosecutors to seek convict
 ions even when they themselves don’t want to\, and how judges may decide
  cases differently after lunch.\n\nEmily will be joined by Matthew Clair\,
  Assistant Professor of Sociology\, in a discussion moderated by Mike Roma
 no\, Director of the Three Strikes Project. Together\, they’ll explore t
 he human cost of the dysfunctional system and illuminate a path toward a m
 ore equitable future.
