The Jimmy Carter Library presents Heralding Freedom, a discussion of the gulag, the American civil rights movement, and human rights. The Soviet gulag prison system imprisoned millions of innocent people during its infamous history. A panel of human rights leaders discuss its impact on Russia and the world today, as well as offering comparisons to the American civil rights movement.
