Many of today's youth think of prison as a rite pf passage but the reality of prison life is so much worse than anything they ever imagined. This video was produced with the help of inmates serving life sentences at Graterford Prison. By telling their stories of how they got into trouble and the harsh realities of prison life, they hope that some young viewers might think twice about their actions and change their ways before it's too late. Teacher guide included. |
