In 2017, Deven Grey, a young mother, shot and killed her abusive partner in a remote trailer in rural Shelby County, Alabama. She claimed self-defense and filed a Stand Your Ground claim. Instead of freedom, she was handed a “blind plea” – an option to take an unknown sentence in exchange for pleading guilty. As a Black woman who shot and killed a white man in Alabama, she did the only thing she could: She took the plea. Deven’s sentence became the final link in a chain of deceit, haunted land, generational trauma, false identity, coercive control, and a broken justice system. Hosted by Emmy Award-winning journalist Liz Flock, Blind Plea asks: Who do we believe, and why? And in America, who has the right to self defense and a fair trial?

Self-Improvement
Ever wish someone could just tell you the right thing to say to your kid? Me too. Parenting brings us the greatest gifts, and it can be messy, confusing, and downright exhausting. I’m Dr. Susan Swick, a child and adolescent psychiatrist. I’m also a mom of 4. And I believe if you can talk about it with your kids, you can tackle it. We can make it Talkaboutable. This season, I’ll hear from parents about what’s keeping them up at night, as well as experts who share real strategies that actually feel doable. Because when our kids handle even the most difficult situations alongside a caring adult, the hard moments become more bearable, and the good moments become even better.
