Crime, Cops--and Criminal Justice?
Podkast av Students in Criminology at Elizabethtown College, PA
This podcast is authored by students at Elizabethtown College, Elizabethtown, PA who are enrolled in Criminal Justice and Criminology courses taught by Professor Conrad L. Kanagy. My students have created episodes that address issues relevant to the criminal justice system, often from a critical perspective, which is the one we would expect sociologists to speak from. The need to do so is past due, and these students are part of a generation that will have to do the hard work of reforming the current system and bringing about a new focus on rehabilitation. I have my own podcast entitled "A Church Dismantled--A Kingdom Restored" that takes a sociological look at the decline of the church in the U.S. and the West in general, but also weaves into the episodes, experiences from his 15 years of ministry as well as his diagnosis of and journey into Parkinson's Disease. You may listen to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher and other podcast carriers.So I hope you enjoy the efforts of these students! You may contact me at kanagycl@etown.edu.Dr. Conrad L. Kanagy

In this episode, I attempt to broaden the perspectives of those who listen. I reflect on how different aspects of people's lives can leave an impact on the rest of their lives. I attempt to answer the question, "What can be done to aid in supporting poverty and crime sickened communities"? I hope those who listen will be able to gather a perspective that enlightens a sense that there needs to be a change in our current society.
