Welcome back to Season 2 of Common Era! In our second season, we’re hosting a conversation between Annmarie Lewis, a leading business, youth and justice consultant, and Matshidiso, a composer, songwriter and podcaster with a background in human rights law.
In this episode Matshidiso and Annmarie discuss the sense of justice - and injustice - that has been an unavoidable part of their own lived experiences. Annmarie shares her journey towards working professionally in the justice space, in prisons and with youth in particular. She begins to talk about the struggles for young people in the prison system, the circumstances that bring them there, and the importance of representation, as a black woman in those places.
