In November 2017 a panel discussion titled “…And Justice for All, Reconstituting Just Potentials” was held at the Center for Architecture.

Other panel members included Dr. Harold Appel, former NYC Correctional System physician; Lex Steppling, lead national organizer, Just Leadership USA; Fernando Martinez, Fulton project director, Osborne Association (Bronx); and Dr. Susan Opotow, professor of sociology at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, served as moderator. Oculus has published an edited transcript of the panel n this month’s issue.
