“Over the last six months, I’ve probably spent about a third of my time on criminal justice reform, because the whole system is totally broken,” Rubin told the folks at B/R. “And I’ve never had something I cared about like this outside of my work, my family, my friends—I haven’t had that reaction in my body like I did the day he was sentenced.”
Meek and Rubin were ready to take action with the plan. “So we’re taking on the whole criminal justice system now, and we’re gonna be announcing a major foundation soon,” he explained. “I’m going to be highly involved with it, Meek’s going to be highly involved with it, and some other big people who you know and follow and care about will also be very involved with it. We think we can launch what will be the most impactful foundation within criminal justice reform and create a movement.”
Meek was listed on Bleacher’s Power 50 list and was talking about how the situation came about and Michael played a huge role on the reform.
