Justice is Not Just Us

an ECYP and BJC Podcast

Learning to equip sexual violence survivors and their loved ones with valuable information and tactics to recover from trauma.

Examining both the personal and the policy aspects of immigration. A Nigerian-born father talks with his American-born daughter about his immigration experience. And a legal expert from The Maryland Immigrant Legal Assistance Project explains the hurdles facing immigrant children looking to gain legal status in the US.

Examining the plight of students of color and underrepresented groups in the public school system, looking at the root causes and policies related to the school to prison pipeline. You’ll hear field-reported interviews with students, educators, and other stakeholders.

Structural racism and corporate greed have left some lower-income Howard County residents in a tenuous situation. This episode, we talk with student researchers and fair-housing advocates about the uphill climb toward housing justice.
