Each Ambassador brings unique perspectives from their lived experience with the justice system. The cohort represents six of the nation’s top 20 states with the highest incarceration rates: California, Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas, and Oklahoma. This alignment is intentional and reflects Represent Justice's commitment to investing in leaders whose communities bear the greatest weight of mass incarceration. By uplifting their stories, we challenge the perpetuation of harmful narratives and initiate change where it is most urgently needed.

At the July 2025 Ambassador Film Showcase, Represent Justice welcomed to the stage Michelle Satter, Founding Senior Director of Sundance Institute’s Artist Programs, to announce a new offering for Represent Justice Ambassadors through Sundance Collab, Sundance Institute’s year-round digital space for global artists to learn, create, build a community, and champion independence in filmmaking.
