Shaka Senghor: The Power of Storytelling

As gates slam, prisoners yell, and loudspeakers blare, Inmate No. 04A0823 gives listeners an inside look at the world of prison from his unique perspective as an inmate for the last two decades and a recently named contributing editor for Esquire. By sharing his own personal stories and interviewing leading voices on the outside and inside, John J. Lennon hopes to find the connecting tissue between people in mainstream culture and in the subculture of prison - humanizing who we are and why. It's the closest most listeners will ever get to being inside an American prison.
