All Rights Reserved w/ Yolanda Taylor

In this special solo episode of "All Rights Reserved," host Yolanda Taylor (the Community Lawyer) strips away the interviews and photo ops to have a direct conversation about accountability. Following weeks of discussions with senators, councilmen, and grassroots advocates, Yolanda connects the dots between the decisions made in backrooms and the reality at your kitchen table.In This Episode:- The "3x Rent" Barrier & Predatory Fees: Why requiring tenants to earn three times the rent—while North Carolina’s minimum wage remains stalled at- $7.25 per hour — is a mathematical lockout. Yolanda breaks down the impact of non-refundable $75+ application fees that strip families of gas and grocery money before they even secure a roof.- Proactive vs. Reactive Policing: A deep dive into the Social Sip and Stroll districts. Why is a person drinking a $2 Beer on a bench cited, while those with $12 cocktails are ignored? Yolanda explains the dangerous intersection of profiling and "proactive" law enforcement.- Crime & The Transparency Gap: A critical look at a recent Wake County case where charges for a stabbing involving six victims were dismissed before trial. Yolanda questions the lack of transparency from the DA’s office and whether the same outcome would exist for a Black defendant.- The Ballot Box as a Tool for Survival: Beyond the primary election turnout, Yolanda discusses the upcoming Knightdale community center bond and why local elections for Judges and the District Attorney are the most impactful levers for racial justice.- The Essential Worker Myth: Reflections on the pandemic "heroes"—grocery clerks, CNAs, and service workers—who are now being priced out of the very cities they kept running.🎧 Listen to the full episode of All Rights Reserved on Choice FM and your favorite podcast platforms.Connect with Choice FM🎧 Listen Live: 92.1 FM (WRSV)📞 Message Line: 919-872-1055📺 YouTube: @ILoveChoiceFM📘 Facebook: I Love Choice FM🌐 www.ilovechoicefm.com
