Josh talks with Rochard Bronson, CEO of 70 Million Jobs about his mission to help one million formerly incarcerated people find meaningful work.

I wrote recaps of all 65 episodes of Orange Is the New Black from the perspective of a formerly incarcerated person. I will continue my series Orange, Black, or Bleak the day after Season 6 starts (July 27th).

Jeffrey Korzenik, of Fifth-Third bank, has been arguing that the hiring of formerly incarcerated folks is critical to maintaining our current economy.

The Prison Policy Institute published a recent paper arguing that employment discrimination for formerly incarcerated people is worse than it was during the great depression.

If you want to know more about Richard Bronson's past, you can find many popular press pieces and a very detailed Reddit AMA.
