Host Phillip A. Jones had a powerful conversation with Jessica Henry, J.D, professor, author, legal commentator, former public defender, and nationally recognized criminal justice expert. In this candid conversation, they unpack the realities of the criminal legal system, the cries of wrongful convictions, and the systemic mistreatment of people of color.

Host, Phillip A. Jones had a powerful conversation with guest, Travon McCoy, and inspiring voice who is shining beyond the walls of prison. As, I continue hosting The Wall Behind and Beyond, my mission goes beyond sharing my own story. It's about amplifying the voices of those who are working to change the criminal justice landscape, especially those who are still incarcerated, and are often overlooked. We must remember: it's not always about us. Sometimes, it's about making space for others who deserve a first or second chance. So, hats off to my fellow Baltimorean, Travon McCoy, who's not just talking the talk, he's walking the walk.

Host Phillip A. Jones had the incredible opportunity to sit down with the incomparable Hon. Jill P. Carter for a conversation that was nothing short of powerful. The depth, insight, and truth that flowed during this dialogue had me repeatedly saying, "This is fire!" Talk about a trailblazer-Jill P. Carter is the embodiment of strength, wisdom, empathy, and grace. She carries herself with class, compassion, and conviction. A true champion for justice, her legacy is marked by fearless advocacy, a relentless pursuit of equity, and an unwavering commitment to uplifting the voiceless. Her words didn't just speak to the moment-they spoke to the movement.

As we wrap up Second Chance Month, host Phillip A. Jones leads a powerful and thought-provoking conversation with a panel of change-makers to explore what a second chance truly means, personally, and systemically. Each panelists, shares heartfelt reflections on the importance of redemption, accountability, and the urgent need to reimagine justice for those who've been incarcerated. But let us not wait until next April to recognize humanity, offer grace, and extend opportunities. Justice-impacted individuals deserve ongoing support, not just seasonal acknowledgement. Every day is a chance to stand in solidarity, shift narratives, and create space for healing, dignity, and hope.
