Dignity and Power Now (DPN), a grassroots organization in Los Angeles, works to end mass incarceration. Founded by Patrisse Cullors, an artist and co-founder of the Black Lives Matter movement, DPN uses an innovative organizational model which embeds art, healing, wellness and leadership development within its political and social reform agenda. In this video, leaders and participants describe how they have created a new spiritual community through this BLM affiliated organization.<\/p>\n
