“Water is a Right: The Fight for Environmental Justice in Detroit” w/ Demeeko WilliamsJoin us with guest Demeeko Williams, Founder and Chief Director of Hydrate Detroit (hydratedetroit.org), to explore the struggle for water justice in one of America's Blackest cities. As part of our Black Liberation and Abolition series, this conversation centers on the racialized politics of water shutoffs, the criminalization of poverty, and the community-led resistance that redefines access to water as a human right — not a commodity.Demeeko will reflect on how systemic disinvestment, environmental racism, and austerity politics have led to Detroiters, predominantly Black and low-income... being denied access to clean water. We unpack how this crisis ties directly into broader abolitionist work: dismantling the structures that make survival a punishment, and building alternatives rooted in care, equity, and collective power.***Turning A Moment Into A Movement Podcast MISSION:To bring awareness, organize, and create content that will be a resource that will aide families, communities, and those seeking Justice for WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS and Injustice. ...and advocating for Justice & Exoneration for GERARD HAYCRAFT. change.org/Justice4GerardTurning A Moment Ino A Moment Team:-Jay Love Host: Founder and Creator of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, The Justice for Gerard Movement, to learn more about The Justice for Gerard Movement go to: ⁠www.change.org/Justice4Gerard⁠Executive Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights, G100 Prison Reforms & Reintegration Global Advisory Council Member-Rev.

Featuring a recorded conversation w/ Krystal Clark. Krystal is in critical need of our help. For the last 15 years, she has been slowly tortured by the conditions inside the prison.

TOPIC: “The Pursuit of Truth” pt.5 w/ Diane Bukowski & Darrell Ewing We extended Wrongful Conviction Day... October 2, 2024, to an entire month of conversation regarding "The Pursuit of Truth". Our Goal is to elevate consciousness about the mindset and systemic behaviors that result in innocent people being arrested and convicted of crimes that they did not do. Everyday there's an innocent person being detained, arrest and convict of a crime that they had no knowledge of.... not just here in Michigan, but all over the US and the world. This injustice can happen to ANYONE! No one is exempt from being wrongly accused or convicted! We are beyond tired of these systemic atrocities...and now is the time to make change happen... We realize that that Change we seek must first happen within....in order to expand outwardly. That's why we are here... not force anything on anyone, but to trigger thought with information that's mind opening, causing a new conversation that inspires movement to TAKE OUR POWER BACK!

The Justice for Gerard Movement presents...... "Turning A Moment Into A Movement" Friday November 3, 2023 @ 8:30pm TOPIC: Community Conversation: ACCOUNTABILITY & JUSTICE! Accountability and Justice are two important concepts in the criminal justice system. Accountability refers to the responsibility of law enforcement officials to act in a transparent, fair, and collaborative manner with the communities they serve. It is important for police departments to be held accountable for their actions when they deviate from that standard. There are generally four mechanisms for holding law enforcement accountable: community-based, political, civil, and criminal. Justice, on the other hand, is about ensuring that the legal system is fair and equitable for all individuals. It involves taking responsibility for one's actions and correcting broken or fractured systems.
