From Hate to Restorative Change

From Hate to Restorative Change

Special guest Sean Gillespie shares his incredible story. From #abuse & #trauma to a lengthy prison sentence for #hate crimes to life altering positive change. Sean’s journey will shake you to your core and stir your soul. As a former neo-Nazi skinhead and member of the white supremacist organization, Aryan Nations, Mr. Gillespie's story will take you through an incredible path from a world of hate into a world of righteous change. A former leader, recruiter, organizer, propagandist, and violent terrorist for the white supremacist and neo-Nazi movement, he promoted hate, bigotry, and racism. He was sentenced to 39yrs in the Federal prison system for a racially motivated hate crime in 2004. Mr. Gillespie spent a total of 16 years in prison, 8 of which were served in America's most secure facility, A.D.X. Super-Maximum Control Unit. Mr. Gillespie was released from prison in 2020, after winning an appeal he filed pro se. Sean got a second chance on life and has been able to overcome the mistakes he made early on.  After turning his back on the white supremacist movement in 2008, Mr. Gillespie has been able to do a considerable amount of work to combat and fight hatred and extremism. He has assisted in the teaching of criminology students and written numerous articles against hatred. Mr. Gillespie was featured in the award-winning documentary series 'Indivisible: Healing Hate' (2022, Paramount Plus) narrated by Mandy Patinkin, as well as news interviews both locally and nationally.

For 25 years, Jeff Schoep was infamous for stoking the flames of  division and hate, as the National Leader of America’s largest neo-Nazi  party, National Socialist Movement (NSM). Through interpersonal  relationships and dialogue with those he once vilified, Jeff’s life was  changed forever. In 2019, Jeff left the NSM and publicly denounced the  ideology he once espoused.  Once America’s most notorious neo-Nazi, now a  consultant for the Simon Wiesenthal Center and an inspirational speaker  for Conscious Campus, Jeff Schoep tirelessly holds talks, lectures and  workshops from his unique vantage point. He speaks with students,  communities, and law enforcement about the dangers of hate and  extremism.  In 2020, he founded Beyond Barriers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit  organization dedicated to countering extremism and helping others change  their lives. He once was infamous – today, he is deadly serious about  combating extremism.  https://jeffschoep.com Follow Jeff Schoep: https://linktr.ee/jeffschoep

Safety and Security - Interview with retired police officer Anthony Beattie

Safety and Security - Interview with retired police officer Anthony Beattie

#BeyondBarriersPodcast hosts Jeff Schoep and Acacia Dietz interview  retired police officer Anthony Beattie. In Episode 27 we discuss the  relationship between police and community, school safety, and the  struggles police as individuals face in both personal and professional  life.  Anthony has over 20 years of service in law enforcement, most at a city  declining into one of the most violent in the nation. The student attack  at Columbine drove training across his department, evolving their every  day tactics and response. Yet he did not see these changes in the way  schools respond to incidents, evidenced in Parkland. Anthony began  researching acts of violence and student crisis, and spends much of his  time studying security as an ASIS member and PSP applicant. Now Anthony  is a co-founder of PEACE (Police Engagement And Community Excellence)  and is the Protection Coordinator for ATAP Security.  For more information on PEACE and ATAP please visit: PEACE: https://communityandpolice.com & https://atapsecurity.com For more information on ATAP Hall Monitor: https://ataphallmonitor.com

Ep. 13 - Long Way Home - Story of a 60's Scoop Survivor

Ep. 13 - Long Way Home - Story of a 60's Scoop Survivor

In this #BeyondBarriersPodcast episode #JeffSchoep and Acacia speak with an Indigenous survivor of the #SixtiesScoop. This is an incredible story of courage and strength. How one survivor found his way home and is now raising awareness and speaking out against the genocide of the Canadian Indigenous people. 

**Disclaimer: The following content may contain elements that are not suitable for some audiences listener discretion is advised**

"The Sixties Scoop refers to a practice that occurred in Canada of taking, or "scooping up," Indigenous children from their families and communities for placement in foster homes or adoption. Despite the reference to one decade, the Sixties Scoop began in the late 1950s and persisted into the 1980s. It is estimated that a total of 20,000 aboriginal children were taken from their families and fostered or adopted out to primarily white middle-class families as part of the Sixties Scoop..." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixties_Scoop
