How does it feel to come of age in some of the UK’s most disadvantaged neighbourhoods? What really drives inner city crime? What’s it like being sent to jail at a young age and released with nothing? We hear a lot about the issues of gangs, youth crime and county lines, but we hardly ever hear from the people with the best insight of all: young prison leavers themselves.
Time & Again, produced by Switchback and independent podcast production company Beautiful Strangers, features six young men in their own powerful words. It’s the first piece of content within Switchback’s new Flip the Script campaign which sets out to foreground the voice and experience of young prison leavers in order to challenge social and racial injustice and champion change in the justice system.
