The Milwaukee Bucks, in partnership with the REPRESENT JUSTICE Campaign, today hosted a basketball game at Racine Correctional Institution in which members of the Bucks coaching staff suited up to play with incarcerated individuals, with Bucks players serving as honorary coaches. The game was attended by families of the incarcerated individuals, as well as other residents of the institution.
Prior to the game, players, coaches and executives of the Bucks and members of the REPRESENT JUSTICE Campaign, who are themselves formerly incarcerated, sat down for an hour-long facilitated conversation with currently incarcerated individuals.
Today’s event was organized by the REPRESENT JUSTICE Campaign in partnership with One Community, working with the Anti-Recidivism Coalition (ARC) and the Bucks.
