September 8, 2017- Family Values: A Conversation with Ray Luc Levasseur


Listen Later

In this episode, we continue our conversation with Ray Luc Levasseur. He is a former underground combatant with the United Freedom Front, which carried out a campaign of attacks from 1975-1984 against South African Apartheid and US intervention in Central America. He spent 13 years in solitary confinement after his capture.

This week, he shares with us his thoughts on the impact of incarceration on families, including his time as a parent both in clandestinity and in prison. He talks about his own experiences, leading to insights about the larger issues facing many families, as millions of children are deprived of their parents in a society with record-high incarceration rates.

You can hear the first part of our conversation with Ray here.

We will have a PDF of his piece, Family Values, on our website: kitelineradio.noblogs.org
