Hosted by Dwayne, who brings firsthand experience navigating the prison system, and Dr. Sissy- a surgeon, psychiatrist and passionate advocate for equity and justice, this show dives deep into America’s school-to-prison pipeline. Each episode, Dwayne & Dr. Sissy tackle tough questions: Why are so many students being pushed out of classrooms and into the criminal justice system? How do race, disability, and poverty play a role? Who benefits from these patterns, and what can we do to disrupt them?They also shine a spotlight on grassroots organizations and solutions making real change—from restorative justice programs to policy reforms.Whether you’re an educator, a parent, a policy maker, or someone eager to learn, Prison Pipeline arms you with the knowledge, tools, and hope you need to join the fight for justice.Tune in and be part of the movement to break the pipeline, find hope, and build a future where every young person gets to thrive.
