Last week I was so moved by Dr. Marc Howard, a Georgetown professor who teaches a course inside of a DC prison where men & women can get Georgetown credits. I met so many amazing people that can’t wait to share their stories with you. pic.twitter.com/xxmnIPFy7j

In the film, Kim visits the District of Columbia Correctional Treatment Facility to discuss the Georgetown Prison Scholars program – an education initiative that aims to help inmates become pillars of their community upon release.
Kim confirmed that she is filming the documentary, after images of her at the prison were released last week.
“Last week I was so moved by Dr. Marc Howard, a Georgetown professor who teachers a course inside of a DC prison where men and women can get Georgetown credits,” she tweeted
“I met so many amazing people that can’t wait to share their stories with you.”
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!”
““You are a true criminal justice warrior. Your passion and compassion inspire the world to see the humanity of the incarcerated.”
We filmed a documentary I am working on that will be out on @oxygen and I hope you will learn about the justice system the way I have.
