Felix Rosado's leadership, co-founding Let's Circle Up and advancing restorative justice and abolitionist work, has been recognized by The Lifelines Project, The Amistad Law Project, and Eastern State Penitentiary's Searchlight Series. On November 11 and 12, he and Anthony Marqusee ‘16 will co-lead a workshop on Restorative Justice at Haverford College.
The Haverford College Center for Peace & Global Citizenship invites members of the Greater Philadelphia community to a free 2-day Let's Circle Up workshop, Friday and Saturday November 11-12
The workshop will be held at Haverford College on Friday, 5:00 - 9:00 pm and Saturday, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm in person. Participation in the full program is required. The workshop is free, and includes meals.
This highly participatory introductory restorative justice (RJ) workshop was developed by men incarcerated at Graterford Prison in 2007, and will be led by experienced Let’s Circle Up facilitators. The four themes addressed in workshop sessions are: rethinking justice, exploring harm, developing restorative approaches, and applying RJ values to our lives.
The facilitation team includes Anthony Marqusee ‘16 and Felix Rosado, the co-creator and co-leader of Let’s Circle Up. This is the first opportunity folks outside of prison will have to experience the workshop as delivered by its creator!
To learn more about the workshop and Let’s Circle Up, we welcome you to join us for a zoom info session Wednesday, October 26, 8:00 pm (not required in order to register for the 10-hour workshop)
