Attend a Talk on Transgender (In)Visibility in California's Parole Process

​🏛️ What does justice look like for trans people behind bars?

​Join the Big Brain Speaker Series at the SF Athletic Club for a conversation with Dr. Kimberly Richman, professor of sociology and legal studies at the University of San Francisco, as they explore what happens when transgender people navigate the prison system—and what it takes to make it out.

​In this talk, they’ll take a closer look at how California’s parole system works—and what happens when transgender individuals come before the parole board to earn their release after long prison terms. Drawing from original research analyzing every transgender parole hearing in the state from 2021–2022, Dr. Richman will unpack what the data reveals about bias, reform, and the real-world barriers to freedom.
