À propos de ce contenu audio

We share how Eyone Williams is reclaiming the name "DC Blacks" and trace how his support network grew from social posts into real connections. We go on to challenge a new push to try DC kids as adults and remove judicial discretion for people under 24. Our stories show how adult prisons teach violence to children and why prevention and second chances work.

We explore:

• The DC-to-federal prison pipeline.
• The early indoctrination of youth on juvenile blocks and in jail.
• The myths of the super predator narrative in the media.
• Why teens’ impulsivity and environment matter for accountability.
• The healing offered by violence interruption, credible messengers and second-look sentencing
