RANDI GETSUSHIN BROX founded the prison volunteer program of
the Dharma Rain Zen Center in Portland. Much of her practice has
been centered around her efforts with prison inmates. What started
as a correspondence with two inmates on Death Row developed into
what is now monthly services and support for Buddhist practitioners at
the Oregon State Penitentiary in Salem and Coffee Creek Correctional
Facility, a prison for women in Wilsonville.
This talk is the first in a series of four lectures (Jan. 17 and 31; February
14 and 28) on interreligious perspectives on the death penalty that is
part of the UNESCO Chair’s Prisons, Compassion, and Peace initiative.
This initiative will culminate in a conference March 14-15, and with
performances of the stirring opera version of Sister Helen Prejean’s
Dead Man Walking produced by Eugene Opera at the Hult Center on
March 15 and 17.
