Jia is reading a poem of lament from Stacy Krisik. Stacy is a student in McCormick Theological Seminary’s program for seminary education in jail. This program is one of 4 offered by the Solidarity Building Initiative for Liberative Carceral Education at McCormick, also known as SBI. Stacy wrote her lament during COVID-19 while in pretrial incarceration at the Cook County Jail in the summer of 2021. Stacy’s poem is included in SBI’s annual publication entitled The Prayer Collective, which will be available soon at sbimccormick.org.
