Filmmakers Dee Hibbert-Jones and Nomi Talisman's most recent collaboration, Last Day of Freedom, is an animated film-and 2016 Oscar nominee!- that personalizes the death penalty through one family's story, and explores the nexus of the criminal justice system and systemic social issues of racism, mental health access, and veterans' care. Together with renowned independent radio producer Davia Nelson of NPR's Kitchen Sisters (with Nikki Silva), Hibbert-Jones and Talisman lead an open discussion on the power of the documentary form across media, and how it can be used to incite understanding, empathy, and change.
