After decades in prison for the alleged sale of a $10 bag of marijuana, Mr. Ramson Miller still has faith in humanity.

In this closing episode, we reflect on key moments from his 23.5 years of incarceration while taking a deeper look at the realities of mass incarceration—and what we risk losing as a society if we move forward without understanding, compassion, and change.

When Michelle Fiordaliso and her 5-year-old son, Joe, “migrated” from New York to Los Angeles, she knew she had to push past her fear and face the unknown. In retrospect, it was a momentary encounter with bees that told Michelle everything she needed to know about what the future would hold.
