Freedom and Power: Ending the Criminalization of Black Women and Girls

In this powerful episode of Taking Back Control, BWJP’s Cindene Pezzell sits down with three visionary leaders working to dismantle the criminal legal system’s impact on Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people. Dr. Sydney McKinney of the National Black Women’s Justice Institute, and Niki Martinez and April Grayson of the Sister Warriors Freedom Coalition, share their lived experiences and bold strategies to promote healing, justice, and community-led change. From trauma-informed mentorship to the creation of the LOVE curriculum, this conversation centers dignity, resilience, and radical care.
