Wes Moore’s Tale of Two People
We sit down with the best-selling author Wes Moore. He talks about his book, "The Other Wes Moore"; changes his home city of Baltimore has undergone over the years, especially in light of the riots that plagued the city; and helping young people prepare for a solid education in a quest to break the cycle of poverty. Then, we profile Ramone Dickerson and Corey Simmons, the co-owners of "2 Fat 2 Fly," as our Entrepreneurs of the Week. They have a food truck that recently caught the eye of Oprah Winfrey and the OWN Network. From there, we unlock the gates to prison reform with Mark Holden, general counsel and senior vice president of Koch Industries. He discusses his strategies to push the movement for criminal justice reform forward. And finally, we spotlight Gideon's Promise, an organization dedicated to protecting the rights of underserved people who are caught in the criminal justice system.
