What an honor it was to interview Chris Wilson. We talked about his book The Master Plan: My Journey from Life in Prison to a Life of Purpose.  

Some points of discussion:

• What was and is your Master Plan?
• How did you get to become an artist and sell your work all over the world?
• "I wanted to be free again".
• "Business school professors encouraged me to become an entrepreneur"
• Why are you a serial social entrepreneur?
• Is there a conscious or unconscious bias when business people are searching for talent?
• Why did you not only survive but now you are thriving in spite of being incarcerated for so many years?
• Prison systems have become a business.
• Final comments from Chris and thoughts from our Senior Producer, Dan Kimbrough.

Van Jones CNN Political Contributor praises Chris Wilson's book: "Do not miss this story of redemption, empowerment, and giving back. It can change your life." Senator Bernie Sanders also offers praise, "An incredibly moving book that will change the way you look at the criminal justice system."
