b'Recently I aired an interview about the FACT Program - Father\'s and Children Together - a highly effective program at SCI Phoenix that brings incarcerated men together with their kids in a program designed to strengthen their bond. I spoke to some of the Moms and youth who participated. For this segment, I speak to a former lifer who was present at the graduation. We talked about his experience but also the power of second chances. Steve Blackburn is the epitome of an individual who has made the most of that opportunity after serving 16 years before his life sentence was commuted.

First, Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia has launched Okaeri (Welcome Home): The Nisei Legacy at Shofuso, a site-based multimedia exhibit telling the story of the Nisei (second-generation), American-born persons of Japanese descent, and their unique connection and contributions to Shofuso. I speak to Rob Buscher Exhibit Curator.
