The North Carolina Courts. Special Guest: Turron
Manage episode 367419755 series 3426170
In this episode, we take a deeper look at the issue of North Carolina's disproportionate incarceration of people of color. Statistics show that Black and Hispanic individuals are more likely to be arrested, convicted, and sentenced to longer prison terms than their white counterparts. We hear from community members and advocates who are working to address systemic racism and bias within the criminal justice system. We also explore potential solutions, such as investing in alternatives to incarceration and implementing fairer sentencing guidelines. Join us as we examine this pressing issue and discuss ways to create a more just and equitable society.
The Black Light Mass Incarceration Show is a space that is used to uplift the unheard voices of the criminal and social justice issues that many face today.
BLMIS is a weekly podcast that interviews those forgotten in our prison systems. We are here to give the forgotten or ignored a platform for them to share their stories. Inform and educate others on what is really happening behind the scenes.
