Liberated Minds One Book at a Time
“The ability to read awoke inside of me some long dormant craving to be mentally alive.” - Malcolm X
In today's episode I'm joined by Dr. Tom Haney, long time volunteer for Books Through Bars Philadelphia. Dr. Haney’s 30+ years working in law enforcement informed his view on the criminal legal system and inspired him to involve himself in the making access to educational services behind bars possible. He has since dedicated 10 years of service to Books Through Bars and continues to support the organization support people incarcerated in the Mid-Atlantic states receive free books while inside.
