Nueva Fuerza interview – plus, what’s going on in the juvenile justice system

An interview with David Lopez and Diana Duran of Nueva Fuerza. Plus, a deep dive into the problems of our state’s juvenile justice system.

This week Jazmin and Robert welcome David Lopez and Diana Duran of Nueva Fuerza on the show. They shared about the organization, including its purpose, its insights in Louisville’s Latin American population, and its goals for the future.

Jazmin spent most of the first part of the show talking about Kentucky’s juvenile justice system, which has been plagued by very serious scandals for quite a while. We’ve talked around this issue several times on the show, but here we really dig into what is going on, why it’s happening, and what solutions exist.
