Redeem
Redeem gives formerly incarcerated citizens the chance to share their stories -- unadulterated, unashamed. This podcast is a partnership between criminal justice advocate Yasmin Barak, and storyteller Matt Thekkethala. Each episode offers a compassionate glimpse into the life of an American on a quest for redemption, along with the difficulties they face, and the victories they celebrate. With each story, we learn more about the complicated nature of self-forgiveness, and what it means to live in a just society. For more, please visit our website at realppl.org/redeem-1.
