Description

You only have one stupid human suit, so what do you do when it is suddenly confined? This week Carol and Sean are joined by comedian, actor and teacher Jeffrey Joseph, who teaches creative writing to juvenile offenders at Rikers Island. He also works with an organization called Witness To Innocence, an "organization dedicated to empowering exonerated death row survivors to be the most powerful and effective voice in the struggle to end the death penalty in the United States." You can learn more about Witness To Innocence at their web site, witnesstoinnocence.org.
