“If it’s wrong and not right, we all have to speak up and we all have to step up to make a difference.”

In part 2, we dig into Carol’s thoughts on the criminal justice reform she wants to see, the Marcus Alert and de-funding the police.

We also learn about a program where high school students can evaluate the police, a live firearm simulation where people can experience making split second decisions, and more.

If you missed part 1, you can listen here.

*Note to community organizers: If you are interested in responding to anything you hear in our discussion with Carol Adams, we would like to invite you to the table for a follow-up episode & open dialogue with Carol.  Please email inspire_indeed@wrir.org.
