IMMIGRANT YOUTH AND JUVENILE JUSTICE WITH EDDY ZHANG




Voices of Youth Justice  show

Summary: In this episode, we speak with Eddy Zhang who became involved in the justice system by getting entangled in the migration to school to prison and deportation pipeline. As an immigrant coming into this country, he was dealing with the trauma of being uprooted from his homeland and facing language barriers, cultural difference, and generation gaps. Eddy has taken these experiences since his release and is now an advocate for youth justice, particularly Asia-Pacific Island youth entangled in the justice system.
