YouTube Originals | Soledad O’Brien Talks Criminal Justice Reform | Bear Witness, Take Action 2 @youtubeoriginals | Uploaded December 2020 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Soledad O’Brien talks to Derrick Johnson and Gina Clayton-Johnson about criminal justice reform. Is it possible to change the infrastructure or are we fated to live in the same system forever?

This conversation breaks down what you need to know about how we’re being failed – and how to raise the heat.
