Season 01 Episode 01 Are you really free?

To many, freedom means being able to do whatever you want. To others, it means not having to bow down to some external oppression or slavery. But true freedom goes much deeper than that. That’s why some prisoners are free even though they’re behind bars, while many people who are technically free are walking about in prisons of their own making. As Thoreau said, they’re leading “lives of quiet desperation.” In today’s episode, we’ll talk to three people who have unique takes on what it means to be truly and completely free.

Ward Coleman and Butyrka Prison   3:16 – 5:46

Tyrone Thompkins “Will we ever be slaves again?”   6:39 – 9:47

Kathleen Dooley “The little train that couldn’t”.  10:34 – 13:52
