About this listen

Justice or Just(US)? is a space where real stories meet the systems that shape them. This podcast isn’t about one person or one experience — it’s about the people who’ve been touched by the system, the families who carry the weight, and the communities who feel the impact long after the headlines fade.

I am Macary Humphrey, your host.. and I’m having honest, human conversations with folks who’ve lived it, worked in it, or witnessed it up close. We’re breaking down how these systems actually move, who they serve, who they overlook, and what it means to rebuild your life in a world that often expects you not to.

This isn’t polished talking points. This is truth, reflection, and storytelling rooted in lived experience. This is us figuring it out together — the gap between justice and “just us.”

    In this episode, I sit down with my mom and we go back to the beginning of her story. This is the “why” behind the work I do and the heart behind this whole podcast. It’s honest, it’s vulnerable, and it’s the foundation of everything that’s coming next. If you’re rocking with me… this is where it starts.
