"Black people continue to be overrepresented at all levels of the Canadian justice system. According to the Correctional Service of Canada, nine per cent of offenders in custody were Black in 2020-2021, despite only representing about four per cent of Canada’s population. As community activists, we delve into the pressing issue of anti-Black racism in the Canadian justice system and how the implementation of Impact of Race and Culture Assessments (IRCAs) can reduce the over-representation of Black people in the justice system. This is significant as it goes beyond a one-size-fits-all punitive approach that has shown to be ineffective." Read more from GREG N. LESLIE, BSW, RSW, CW, MSW candidate and registered social worker, and Ardavan Eizadirad of Wilfrid Laurier University on how equitable sentencing can mitigate anti-Black racism in Canada’s justice system: https://bit.ly/3Rr2w3b University of Waterloo Renison University College The Conversation Canada #UWaterloo #UWaterlooArts

A+ article. Holistic defense should be everywhere!
When I was little, my grandfather---a journalist---kept stacks and stacks of the best magazines, every issue, going back for years, in his study. I remember walking past the physicalized legacy of the New Yorker, piled almost as tall as me, smelling the pages and eventually getting lost in the incredible stories inside. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be involved in building something that could make it into those pages. But the struggle to empower public defense is absolutely worthy of such inclusion, and today I am thrilled and grateful to see Partners for Justice, our clients, Advocates, defender partners, and legacy of decarceration detailed beautifully by Sue Halpern for The New Yorker. https://lnkd.in/ep4wAGUq

As someone who has experienced incarceration and successfully reintegrated into society, I firmly believe in our power and responsibility to prevent crime and reduce reoffending. It's time to put aside excuses and recognize the inherent strength we possess. Nelson Mandela's inspirational example continues to guide me. He chose a path that demanded immense courage and unwavering integrity. It's not about taking the easy way out; it's about embracing a challenging journey guided by principles greater than ourselves. I acknowledged my guilt, took ownership of my actions, and reclaimed my personal power. By doing so, I transformed my circumstances and overcame my past. It wasn't an instantaneous process, but it laid the foundation for a powerful transformation. I encourage all individuals who have experienced incarceration, and those currently in prison, to recognize and reclaim their personal power. Our past choices may have brought us here, but our future depends on the choices we make today. Together, we can contribute to building safer and healthier communities, one choice at a time.
