In this section of "Solution on the Yard," hosts Dietrich Trent, Michael Dickerson-El, and Charles Hopkins discuss experiences in the "shoe" (solitary confinement unit). They talk about the mental preparation necessary to survive under these extreme conditions, where mental strength is crucial. Dickerson-El describes how solitary confinement can dehumanize individuals, desensitizing them to normal emotions and affecting their relationships upon returning to society. Hopkins highlights the inhumane nature of solitary confinement and how it negatively impacts prisoners both mentally and physically by subjecting them to constant transfers and invasive searches.
