We Are All Criminals strives for a more just and equitable world where we are able to transcend our pasts and reach our full potential. We do this through art and personal stories of crimes that people got away with, or crimes for which people were caught, and an examination of how their lives could have been or were altered. WAAC uses visual art and storytelling to change people's perceptions of the criminal legal system and of the false dichotomy between criminal and clean.
