Hop on the Mic with Dr. Janer Hernandez and Joe Powell

Hop on the Mic with Dr. Janer Hernandez and Joe Powell

Keris is joined by Joe Powell and Dr. Janer Hernandez and they share their extensive histories in addiction recovery and community leadership. Joe Powell shares stories of his early life as a child performer in Harlem and how the civil rights movement and military service influenced his journey toward becoming a pioneer in the peer recovery movement. Dr. Hernandez advocates for the transition from "safe spaces" to "brave spaces," arguing that true collectivism requires addressing internalized oppression and systemic racism. They talk about working toward a shift in preventative strategies and community-led solutions to dismantle cycles of mass incarceration and poverty.
