Putting the Criminal Justice System on Trial: A Conversation with Benjamin Perrin

The justice system in Canada is broken. It traumatizes people who go through it and leaves them worse off. But how can we change a system that refuses to transform itself? Today, I talk with Benjamin Perrin, a law professor at the University of British Columbia Allard School of Law. We talk about how this revolutionary author is shaking up the status quo with his book and podcast series, Indictment: Criminal Justice System on Trial , and about the tools and approaches that break the cycles of harm and trauma in the courts, policing and prisons. It's time to challenge the system!
