The Connection: From Gangleader to Peacekeeper (5/5/19)

Hosts Ann Baldwin and Lisa DeMatteis-Lepore speak with Charles Barber and William Juneboy Outlaw III. Charles works with the Connection and is also the author of several books, including the upcoming book “Citizen Outlaw: One Man’s Journey from Gangleader to Peacekeeper”. It chronicles William’s life, whose journey has taken him from housing project youth to ruthless gangland kingpin to change-making community advocate. William was originally sentenced to 85 years for his crimes but has now turned his life around and has dedicated himself to helping other troubled youth. Written with exclusive access to Outlaw himself, Charles Barber’s “Citizen Outlaw” is the unforgettable story of how a gang leader became the catalyst for one of the greatest civic crime reductions in America. It’s a story that will amaze and inspire!
