AB  - Describes undergradaute course that pairs reading King Lear with a supreme court opinion, Brown v. Plata, about inhumane treatment of prisoners; Tempest with readings on restorative justice; and Merchant of Venice with Ava du Vernay's documentary 13th, about "the intersectionality of race, prison, and the law's violence." Shows value of bringing undergraduate students to study Shakespeare alongside and paired with incarcerated students.
