Tanya Erzen, associate professor of religion and gender and queer studies at the University of Puget Sound, will speak on “God in Captivity: Punishment and Redemption in America’s Faith-Based Prisons.” Based on her forthcoming book from Harvard University Press, Erzen will address questions that arise when considering contemporary, faith-based prison programs that operate under the logic that religious conversion and redemption will transform prisoners into new human beings. This lecture marks the 10th year of the Robert A. Harvie Social Justice Lecture series. This event is free and open to the public. Located in Harned Hall #110.
