Kim Kardashian was spotted taking selfies with inmates during a prison visit this week.
As part of her upcoming Oxygen documentary, dubbed ‘Kim Kardashian: The Justice Project’, the reality star visited the District of Columbia Correctional Treatment Facility.
The 38-year-old was there to discuss the Georgetown Prison Scholars Program, which offers educational courses to inmates.
Following her visit, the official Twitter account for the Program tweeted: “Thank you
@KimKardashian for coming to speak to the Georgetown Prison Scholars Program at the DC Jail yesterday!”

What an inspiring day spent with the extraordinary @KimKardashian. We talked about CJ reform in the morning, and then we experienced that change occurring at the DC Jail all afternoon. Let’s defeat mass incarceration and rediscover humanity. @DCCorrections @oxygen #cjreform pic.twitter.com/hcJ5ziI6SW

“You are a true criminal justice warrior. Your passion and compassion inspire the world to see the humanity of the incarcerated.”
According to reports, the documentary Kim is filming will be a two-hour long special, and will follow her continued prison reform advocacy efforts.
After visiting the D.C. jail, Kim visited the White House once again, but this time she brought her daughter North West, and her 85-year-old grandmother MJ Campbell.
TMZ has reported that Kim and her family were treated to a private tour of the White House, but the mother-of-four was there to talk prison reform too.
It’s believed Kim also spoke to US President Donald Trump about A$AP Rocky’s incarceration in Sweden, after she and her husband Kanye West asked him to help free the rapper.
Their meeting took place just hours after Rocky was formally charged with assault in Sweden.
Following their meeting, Trump tweeted: “Very disappointed in Prime Minister Stefan Löfven for being unable to act. Sweden has let our African American Community down in the United States.”
Very disappointed in Prime Minister Stefan Löfven for being unable to act. Sweden has let our African American Community down in the United States. I watched the tapes of A$AP Rocky, and he was being followed and harassed by troublemakers. Treat Americans fairly! #FreeRocky

“I watched the tapes of A$AP Rocky, and he was being followed and harassed by troublemakers. Treat Americans fairly! #FreeRocky.”
In another tweet, he added: “Give A$AP Rocky his FREEDOM. We do so much for Sweden but it doesn’t seem to work the other way around. Sweden should focus on its real crime problem! #FreeRocky.”
