Stories have the power to change what people believe is possible.

Represent Justice works with system-impacted storytellers, filmmakers, advocates, and leaders across the country to shift narratives about the criminal legal system and advance justice reform.

For interviews, expert commentary, organizational background, or media assets, our team can connect journalists with Represent Justice leadership and members of our national Ambassador and Speakers Bureau network.

Interview Represent Justice Leadership

Represent Justice leadership is available to speak about the role of storytelling and narrative change in ending mass incarceration, supporting system-impacted storytellers, building impact campaigns around film and media, and creating pathways for people directly impacted by the criminal legal system to shape public understanding and policy conversations.

Potential topics include:

• Narrative change and criminal justice reform

• Storytelling as a strategy for social change

• Representation of incarceration and reentry in media

• Impact campaigns for films addressing the criminal legal system

• Supporting formerly incarcerated filmmakers, advocates, and cultural leaders

• Building narrative power within system-impacted communities

Interview Represent Justice Ambassadors & Speakers Bureau Members

The people closest to the criminal legal system are often the people best positioned to explain its impact and imagine what should come next.

Represent Justice works with a national network of system-impacted filmmakers, advocates, organizers, artists, and community leaders whose expertise is grounded in lived experience and years of work in their communities.

Our Ambassadors and Speakers Bureau members can contribute to reporting, broadcasts, and other media conversations on topics including incarceration, sentencing, reentry, family separation, youth justice, women and incarceration, restorative justice, advocacy, filmmaking, narrative change, and more.

We can help identify a speaker whose experience and expertise best align with your story.
