In 1967, David Rothenberg produced a play called Fortune and Men’s Eyes that revealed the horrors of life in prison. This inspired him to establish The Fortune Society (Fortune). In its 50 years, Fortune has become one of the leading reentry service organizations in the country, serving nearly 7,000 formerly incarcerated individuals per year, providing a wide range of holistic services to meet their needs. Fortune has also secured a position as a leading advocate in the fight for criminal justice reform and alternatives to incarceration. In September of 1971, David Rothenberg was one of a small group of courageous civilian monitors brought into Attica at the request of the incarcerated individuals who were fighting for their human rights – an incident that ended in tragedy but showed the world the horrors of the criminal justice system in the United States. Join us when David Rothenberg, former member of the NYC Human Rights Commission discuss his focus on theater, social activism, politics,and a tireless focus on advocating for the lives of those impacted by the criminal justice system on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.
