1:22 pm
city of chicago has been the scene of nearly two thousand eight hundred shootings a statistic that stands as a sobering reminder of a cycle of violence that shows no signs of stopping but organizes old green trees subscribe to the belief that nothing stops a booklet like a job and say to end the cycle of violence you must eradicate the forces that diminish the humanity of young people. write down all of. them probably nobody wants. this is why the program is so important because this is the way we turn a citizen look at the levitating when do not know don't nobody want to and want to go anywhere but they're joining eight months ago twenty six months in prison. if you like to talk about this being a second chance but it's almost so perfect now it was getting the behavioral health
1:23 pm
finally getting life skills training now and will emerge leader. so what happened. when violence is treated like a community health crisis instead of a crime i say well joining us to talk about this in san francisco california rami nashashibi he's the executive director of the inner city muslim action network in chicago or eman and joining us on sat billy moore case manager for the green reentry program and lanark mcinnis a member of that program welcome everyone to the stream. gets heavy it's good to have you here our brother rami i want to show you something here a couple of tabs on my laptop one is a gun violence archive and you can see the number of injuries from gun violence in twenty eighteen another one is from the chicago tribune fifty of the most recent victims in twenty eighteen of shootings another story hey twenty eight thousand was a record year for school gun violence this is how we know when we talk about gun
1:24 pm
violence in the united states statistics and deaths and not much positivity he'd be your kind of flipping the script on this when you see those stats what do you say well you know there's no doubt that the scores of gun violence in the united states is something that affects all communities irrespective of socioeconomic background urban you know geography whether it's urban or rural clearly an organization like ours is one that has been focusing on this issue in inner city urban communities of chicago and when we look at the problem of gun violence or violence more broadly in chicago i think what we try to do is to. deal with some of the very root causes that historically undergird that violence that in fact provide us with the opportunity to demonstrate that it can be saul jobs opportunities infrastructure
1:25 pm
capacity these are real solutions that create real alternatives for violence and we've seen that work. one of the things that doesn't get address and over is the trauma that people are suffering in our communities due to the fact that they live in these areas that this late in a lot of my young men come and they just want to change because it's out there for them to get away from the things that they're around all day every day the blocks so we provide basically a sanctuary and will dress in a whole person who behavior health their. essential life skills we talk about transforming the thinking that. we stand in front of them also as men who have made mistakes in their lives have changed it turned it around and we just showed them how my biggest sound is trying to fast forward
1:26 pm
a young man's thinking. right now so that he don't make the mistakes that i made as a youth. and it's hard because the only thing that exposed who is what they know what they come from but we provide that that environment that deals them up. on this unapologetic about spiritual basis will we feed the soul. as well as the knowledge in the trays which we have three trays that we. construction electrical and carpentry and we're general found our own community as well as you mentioned hoping to teach young people what to turn around away from now that you know you have the in the wisdom and you can look back and show them i want to bring up this week we got from a pastor in chicago actually and this one to you pastor donovan price writes and he says the individuals i am honored to work with are affected in ways that people
1:27 pm
could never imagine deeper and more far reaching into their existence and who ever thought it ok to discharge a firearm could have hoped so when he talks about the ways that people are affected explain to our international audience what is that like what is it like to be a young black man in chicago. it. is hard because it's a lack of opportunity it's a lack of resources so when you when i get when i got present it were up to me like . it was like i don't really believe that first come in is gas from those what for me i want to live in fear me so it's like. get this person or that we chant of here in then we come to space like ok i started when i started the program i came to the space with a bunch of guys that i don't know i don't know from campaign so it was tension in a room all of the differences that
1:28 pm
a city you don't know who know who you don't know if you're going to be the next them or what. all of our intentions are here we are here to better ourselves so once we start once i start. actually buying into the program i actually see a light because i mean i want only becoming there for just a very light. they help me be a better man that's awful awful like they have to be a better man. with the cognitive thinking how to let you know when i really want to let me know your thoughts can control how you feel and has gone out and control your actions and we as black men on emotion we know how to really express anger because can get we conditioned to only express and we may we when you want to when you cry and you look when you're man grown up that's it that's an emotion that to suppress so coming up when we become men we don't know how to deal with her or pain we go we just we explode in ways that we sin so maybe in me have an opportunity to
1:29 pm
be around guys that the twenty years or gathered the thirty year that kind of messed up a life and me in the actually been to reflect who me. listen to me and them our problems and help me work those out it was like it's a real joy because it's easy for someone this legion alone way not saying. it's easy for to do it so when i actually understand like the whole concept one just about. electricity or learn how to be in one just about that it was more of help wellness they cared they care more not out so desolate when i when i actually felt there and i understood they care way more than i understood the game. because come one come from it's not no it's not a lot of times i want to play something something i've seen
1:30 pm
a lot at it and it's played every time people talk about gun violence and how do we stop gun violence and this is one reason and one example of maybe how we might stop it have a look have a listen two decades ago the gun lobby pressured congress to pass a dickey a minute affectively stop in the center for disease control and prevention for conducting the public health research that we know will save lives this lack of a public investment in gun safety research has left us woefully ignorant about many aspects of gun violence in the united states and the most effective interventions to reduce gun deaths even the original author of this restriction former representative jay dickey has publicly change his mind about the a minute that bears his name and urged congress to resume public health research on gun violence. rami there doesn't seem to be that because appetite in the u.s. to actually research gun violence in
1:31 pm
a way that you might be out of work out how do we stop it how do we reduce the amount assume things how do we reduce the number of deaths is actually. i think you know there is an increasing realization that if we don't modify and come and push simple common sense gun laws in communities whether it's urban communities or whether it's in you know rural our suburban communities across america we're going to continue to see the arithmetic carnage that unfortunately has you know been on our you know t.v. screens throughout the year so i do think you're beginning to see an increasing realization bipartisan realization that something must change meanwhile i do think that again the types of violence in this types of problems associated with violence go way beyond simple gun laws in urban communities for instance it's about
1:32 pm
investment it's about commitment to real opportunities for communities that are under extraordinary stress and have been criminally disinvested in for decades betty you've got case not a chair on your. side now your case manager creamery entry and i'm just going to have a couple of pictures here this is an amazing selfie and i got these many people in one shot. last year. and then another great picture let me see if i can find who they are right then when we're looking at tackling gun violence as as a health issue what is it that you want to doing. well it's a disease displaying a community and if you don't approach it in the sense that you really don't understand how to cure it we have to get out in the community and get in front of we have to wrap our arms around these young men who are basically without hope. you
1:33 pm
show me a young man with a gun so young they're what i hope so we can pull the zhang minutes of programs like him on which will help address to the systemic issues that these young men i belong with when i talk about trauma these young men have been brought up like the r.c.a. with only understand how to express anger they don't have a healthy resource of of upbringing and you know some of these young men don't have fathers or positive male role model that they had to look up to was raised by a single mother who basically had the work you know to provide for her family the one unique thing about him on in our grammarians reprogram is that we have a in a generational cohort and what that is is that we bring in odum in who have done a substantial amount of time in prison and we put them together with younger male who's basically dealing with these issues of trying to find out who they are
1:34 pm
determine understand themselves by being inundated with the things that's going on in the community did dictate this is what a man is about and those are the ones this you this put in triggers so please gas together help serves a purpose for the older guy who did all this time in prison and then had the opportunity of raising his own kid is he missed out on and these young men actually seeing. who have made mistakes and live the life that they're living now so that they can learn from no. that's one way or dylan would have an opportunity to get guys like myself. to get in the lives and the sea in the last a young man and i have a space to blame in that they now have hope of that investigation and it's interesting because what i'm seeing from people online is that the opposite of hope is then returning to those same streets in that same life i want to bring in
1:35 pm
a comment we got from the research director at the john jay college of criminal justice and he talks about that word recidivism the cycle that will have people leave jail leave prison and then return to what have a listen to what he told the stream recidivism is what research is sometimes used to measure the chances a person involved in the criminal justice system will be involved again after a new crime but we don't always know if people have committed new crimes only when they were caught committing crimes a person is rearrested or reconvicted or even reincarnated we say they've reset of a good but recidivism is a combination measure it captures both individual behavior as well as the intensity of effort by police and the courts to stop that behavior if a person comes from a neighborhood that's under intense police surveillance their chances of being a recidivist will be higher than people coming from a different neighborhood that has less police surveillance. so that idea of communities under surveillance will those rates will go up keep that in mind as i read this week here this is from katie she says we need to teach marketable skills
1:36 pm
for careers that will hire them when i worked at a jail many that came back said the same things i was hungry and had to pay my bills no one would hire me so i had to steal prostitute except they didn't want to but they felt forced to for survival rami i'll give this one t. you taking into account what you heard in that video comic earlier talked to us about that cycle the recidivism cycle yeah you know let me give you real specifics that to stick up we found in the state of illinois and in fact we had to introduce legislation with churches and community organizations to begin to address this that the receipt of his i'm rate for instance in two thousand and fifteen and sixteen over eighty five percent of those who receive evading going back to prison were doing so on technical parole violations what that meant was and that could be anything from someone who is coming home trying their best to reenter to get into a job and stop by the police in communities that disproportionately have police
1:37 pm
presence and are stopping people at traffic stops stopping people just walking down the street oftentimes the parole violation could be as. simple as being in the presence of others who are on parole that was actually a law on the books and was able to be a cause for then re incarceration and what that does of course is just continue to increase the fifty percent recidivism rate specially for individuals who are back within the first fourteen months what we have fought back against is both legislatively trying to reduce the barriers for reentry by changing some of those laws and we were successful in doing so in the state of illinois modifying that through grassroots coalitions and campaigns and as katie was saying on that tweet beginning to provide real not only marketable skills but pressure with the private
1:38 pm
industry that we all must be invested in this issue it cannot simply be community organizations pushing the cause of trying to find employment private industry government. universities and private citizens must whether they live in communities that are affected by this issue are not we are often living in urban centers that have these type of neighborhoods in them and we almost see ourselves as collectively invested in trying to create equity across the board so that's something that we have found successful in reducing the recidivism rate in our program and it's and we've seen the positive impact back in have on you know certain blocks in our neighborhoods they're not in line if i ask a couple of questions the. accident all right said hey we have you.
1:39 pm
see you in posturing costs what's going on here i don't see the party that even me i have to say it's hidden conveniently it's like it's a is a therapeutic thing i would have had the writing room and your answer if i remember from school it's a coil pack. so you make this a recreating that any roll of the the thumbs up the side is that just sit nicely done but would you say you are a success story of this kind of approach to. gun violence to to help stop young people from getting sucked in i would say yeah yeah i would because. our listeners have had to me and i could do you want to slow down a little bit because some of our international audience will not. know what that experience is polite so you've been shot how many times a minute. two separate occasions ok. have you stopped to show anybody else no ok so you've just been the middle of it
1:40 pm
and you have been vocal ok but me me being a part of the group. im a may not want to feel not feed those knees when i got shot. there's not a call one one only. so far short. when i got to help help and pick them up so when i got shot i was very discouraged i want to bring me energy in there because i noticed among my positive space was not and was progress so when i got it was like i have to use all the jews that these guys gave you know so it was like i got it i got to get past this i can't perpetuate the cycle because of. any negativity i'm part of the problem right and giving you coping tools to manage it so you got it. when you think of those coping tools we actually got several tweets
1:41 pm
from around the world so in kenya one person talks about the sequence as a sig stigmatise ation are performed offenders in their country we also got tweets coming to us from uganda and other places of people saying we are actually looking at chicago as a model for how to do things billy do you think this is something that scalable that can be scaled up for other cities around the world absolutely and the reason why i say that because the my story. when i was sixteen years old i had this thank you kiran it was the right thing to do which was totally wrong for sixteen year old to be here and. when you carry your gun problems fortunately i had a confrontation. with. the best basketball player to come out of chicago high school basketball player name of ben wilson as a result of a confrontation. and he. i want to waste the twenty years of my life.
1:42 pm
it was a confrontation was a mistake it was something that never happened it was senseless. so when i. understand the position that you can be put in when you carry and also understand what that cycle of retaliation is about. because you would never solve this problem. i was fortunate to have a son who. dated i started working for you. i had to bury him he was sixteen. the only thing that i want to the world to understand was the i made a mistake and i was i was sorry for what i had done and the impact that i had calls . binjie family but the whole entire city of chicago because benji represented
1:43 pm
a dream that most people probably would never have the opportunity to live out. when he died their dream was affected by you know the inside a city like romney said he was the ticket out so the way. it was a mistake so masama skill in the i had a look inside of myself and being willing to also extend forgiveness to the young men who had even to be forgiven because they hadn't even been arrested in that city is the billy thank you for sharing that story and our heart goes out to the victims been just family of course also to your son into your family i want to share a comment we got from the former chicago public schools c.e.o. and the u.s. secretary of education formerly arnie duncan take a look at my screen here you'll see how these two men are related arnie duncan knows you a billion you all have worked together here's
1:44 pm
