After serving an eight year prison sentence at the age of 17 I reentered society with purpose and passion. I use my music to teach & guide others, partnering with @YASP2, @CareNotControl, & other organizations to combat gun violence within the city.

Several #CareNotControl members were featured in the recent #YCLJ Convening. Marcía Hopkins, @dayonenotdaytwo, and Brit Brown-Christopher talked about creating a better future for system-impacted youth during a panel called “Philadelphia Youth Leaders: A Vision for the Future.”

Claim #2: "Crime is out of control."
Response:
Crime remains at historically low levels.
The perception that crime is up is driven by hyperbolic media coverage and claims by opportunistic elected officials.
Property crime is at its lowest level in more than 30 years.

Deep appreciation to @senbartolotta for her bill to end direct file in PA. Also respect to our colleagues at @YASP2 including @DayOneNotDayTwo for sharing their stories.

Some states automatically charge juveniles in adult court for certain serious crimes, a practice known as direct file.
@WmBrangham reports from Pennsylvania, where there's a push to change that practice. to.pbs.org/3MzB3rB

What lessons do children learn from a life of 23 & 1?
(23 hours inside a cell, 1 hour out to make phone calls, shower, for recreation ect.)
Louisiana's juvenile facilities continue to fail our children. Months ago, this shocking report about children being kept in solitary confinement for hours was released, and now a report of long-standing abuse at Ware has been released.
