Overview

The New York City Anti-Violence Project brought SUP on board to share the story of Layleen Polanco, a 27-year old Afro-Latinx trans woman pronounced dead while in solitary confinement at Rikers Island. This story is part of a broader fight to end the inhumane practice of solitary confinement and seek justice for her death.
