Children of Promise is an incredible organization based in Bedstuy, Brooklyn (and expanding!) that mentors children whose parents are incarcerated. In this episode, I had the good fortune of sitting down with Mr. Cecil Walker who is the site director for the program. We talked about everything: What a child who is facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles needs to grow and succeed; groundbreaking ideas for criminal justice reform; how human conflict boils down to character; and restorative methods that can help heal rifts between police officers and the communities under their jurisdiction. I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I enjoyed conducting it. Peace & Love.
