In Michigan, the number of prisoners rose from 3,000 in 1970 to more than 50,000 by 2008, a shift that Buzz Alexander witnessed firsthand when he came to teach at the University of Michigan. Is William Martinez Not Our Brother? describes the University of Michigan's Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP), a pioneering program founded in 1990 that provides university courses, a nonprofit organization, and a national network for incarcerated youth and adults in Michigan juvenile facilities and prisons. By giving incarcerated individuals an opportunity to participate in the arts, PCAP enables them to withstand and often overcome the conditions and culture of prison, the policies of an incarcerating state, and the consequences of mass incarceration. 410 0$aThe new public scholarship series 606 $aArts in prisons$zMichigan 606 $aPrisoners as artists$zMichigan 606 $aCommunity arts projects$zMichigan 606 $aPrisoners$xEducation$zMichigan 615 0$aArts in prisons 615 0$aPrisoners as artists 615 0$aCommunity arts projects 615 0$aPrisoners$xEducation 676 $a365/.66 700 $aAlexander$b William$f1938-2019,$01221766 712 02$aMichigan Publishing (University of Michigan), 801 0$bMiU 801 1$bMiU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910133843703321 996 $aIs William Martinez not our brother$92833047 997 $aUNINA
