The Latino Alumni Association of Columbia University (LAACU), the Black Alumni Council (BAC), the Asian Columbia Alumni Association (ACAA), and the Columbia Alumni Association (CAA) invite you to a special presentation of
Lyrics from Lockdown featuring Bryonn Bain ’95CC, award-winning slam poet and activist.

In his multimedia solo performance piece, Bain presents a searing critique of the American justice system. The production is based on his own wrongful imprisonment for what he memorably termed (in a cover story for the Village Voice) “walking while black.” With the support of a live band and video DJ, Bain tells his story with an imaginative blend of hip-hop, theater, and spoken word.
