Abstract

Living on L.O.P.: What We Learned in Prison is a mini documentary video series which focuses on “Loss of Privileges” (L.O.P.)–a disciplinary action that strips people in prison of their extra-curricular privileges–and the lessons they learned within that Isolation. This series interviews formerly incarcerated individuals about those lessons and how they utilize them now in the midst of the current climate of isolation stemming from the Covid-19 epidemic. The goal is to inform those who are currently experiencing the same sense of isolation that is experienced within prison in the hopes of helping them find a way to deal with their own experience of isolation in a positive way.
