Podcast: “Smell Like the Wolf…”

In June of 2021, I was contacted by Shane Shepherd (founder of B4U Fall) - he had a story to tell about his experiences in the world of violence interruption in Indianapolis. What he shared was not only raw and revealing, it also presented an opportunity to examine the area of violence interruption Indianapolis, a little deeper.

What you're about to hear is not only an interview with Shane, but interviews with other folks who have a vested interest in this work.
