8/30/02
Demos: A Network for Ideas
& Action is seeking fellowship applicants on criminal justice and democracy
reform for innovative national, regional or local work addressing the corrosive
impact of criminal justice policies on the American democracy. A
variety of approaches may be applied, including academic research, policy
analysis, community advocacy and organizing, and journalistic muckraking.
Candidates should be able to link harsh sentencing laws and other such
policies to voter eligibility, redistricting and other important democracy
issues.
Resumes must be submitted
by September 3rd, and should be accompanied by a one page description of
how your organizing, academic or other professional experience makes you
an outstanding candidate. Applicants must be available to start either
Spring or Summer 2003. Demos will respond to applicants that have
a bachelor's degree and at least a two-year history in domestic democracy
and/or criminal justice work. Applications from former prisoners
are welcomed.
E-mail your resume and description
to [email protected].
