PAID DUES: A Black Table Talk conversation about Returning Citizens

By: The National Reentry Network for Returning Citizens
  • Summary

  • Post incarceration is not prison. Yet, in America, more than 6 million adults, roughly 1 in 37, live under some form of correctional control. This podcast is an in-depth discussion about those who have paid their dues to society but are still not free. More importantly, through our Black Table Talk, we’ll chime in on how our failed criminal legal system disproportionally affects Black and Brown communities.

    Our guest is Tony Lewis Jr and we invited him to our podcast because he is a native Washingtonian, community leader, re-entry expert, activist, and has focused a great part of his career on families and children with incarcerated parents. He's experienced first-hand the consequences of having a parent sentence to a federal prison and openly speaks about how it has affected his trajectory.
