  • Alabama Prison Reform Showdown: Tech Skills vs. Steel Bars
    Jan 5 2026

    In this dynamic episode, Alabama Prison Reform Showdown dives into the clash between two competing visions for justice in the state: one focused on building more prisons, and the other on building more opportunities. As Alabama prepares to spend billions on new facilities, reform advocates argue that true change comes through technology, education, and rehabilitation—not walls and wire.

    Drawing from the Alabama Prison Reform Proposal, this episode highlights how AI-driven learning, virtual reality therapy, and vocational programs through Ingram State Technical College can transform lives behind bars. Instead of punishment, the focus shifts to progress—turning inmates into students, workers, and citizens ready to rejoin society.

    Jan 1 2026

    In this inspiring episode, Alabama’s Four-Phase Plan to Redefine Justice explores a bold new vision for prison reform built on accountability, compassion, and rehabilitation.

    Each phase represents a step away from punishment and toward purpose, helping individuals gain the skills, emotional intelligence, and moral grounding needed for reentry into society. We also discuss how AI technology, virtual learning, and work-based programs can make the system more effective, humane, and affordable for taxpayers.
