In this first episode of 2024 (and in advance of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday), Josh Shurley talks with advocate and organizer Marcel Woodruff. Marcel is the director of the Community Justice Network and a program strategist for Advance Peace in Fresno. Their discussion focuses on alternatives to traditional carceral models of "criminal justice," the importance of "decolonizing" the approaches currently favored by the status quo, as well as how we bring about narratives that increase mutual trust and build community.
