When Telling the Truth Makes You a Target Responding to TL700 CCDOC

In this conversation, Cierra emphasizes the critical role of whistleblowers in exposing the truths about harm and neglect within jails and prisons. She discusses the importance of challenging a culture that prioritizes self-protection over human life and advocates for a system that values integrity and truth-telling. takeaways * We will continue to give space to whistleblowers, officers, staff, and the incarcerated people and their families who want to tell the truth. * We will continue to document stories of harm, neglect, and abuse inside jails and prisons. * We will also continue to challenge a culture that prioritizes protecting itself over protecting human life. * If that makes you uncomfortable, I want you to sit with why. * A system that truly valued integrity wouldn't be angry at people who tell the truth. * It would be angry at the people who keep creating the conditions we're talking about. blacklightmassincarceration@gmail.com 🖤 HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT BLACK LIGHT & OUR WORK WITH YOUTH Black Light Mass Incarceration Show is a project of I Kare NC, the nonprofit founded by Cierra Cobb and Jeffrey Cobb dedicated to supporting at-risk youth, justice-impacted families, and communities in need of healing.

A Wife’s Fight for Justice” Featuring Elisa Grant

In this powerful episode, host Cierra Cobb sits down with Elisa Grant, wife of Rashawn Grant, whose case exposes deep cracks in North Carolina’s judicial system. Rashawn’s story unfolds under the shadow of Judge Jefferson Griffin, a Court of Appeals judge accused of neglecting his judicial duties while entangled in lawsuits and political efforts to overturn an election he lost. But beyond the legal fight, this is also a love story  one of loyalty, courage, and resilience. Elisa shares how she and Rashawn first met, how their family has been affected, and why she refuses to stay silent in the face of injustice. Together, they’ve turned pain into purpose demanding accountability, transparency, and reform for families caught in a system that too often fails the people it’s meant to serve. This episode shines a light on what it means to keep faith when the system breaks faith with you — and how community can turn outrage into organized action. 🎧 Listen & Take Action 🎯 Support the Movement for Justice: ✍️ Sign the petition to demand change: Change.org/HqdR6XNfKP [https://c.org/HqdR6XNfKP] 📱 Follow and share updates: * Instagram: www.quietmoneyapparel.com [https://www.quietmoneyapparel.com] 📸 Instagram: https://www.ikarenc.com/ [https://www.ikarenc.com/] 💬 Know a teen who needs mentorship?
