Racism, Crime & Football Violence

Season 1 | Episode 96
2h 10m | Oct 22, 2026

Why would a Black teenager seek acceptance among people who hated the colour of his skin?

Behind that question is a powerful story of childhood abuse, racism, football violence, prison & the desperate search for belonging.

This episode explores how someone can become so disconnected from their identity that acceptance comes at the cost of themselves. 

From a young offenders institution to mentoring vulnerable young people…

What actually helps someone change? What does accountability look like beyond regret and how do you become the adult you needed as a child?

Watch for an honest exploration of identity, shame, recovery & second chances.
