SIM Ep 250 Chops 106: America Is Hard To See

In one of two Sunday Chops this week, Hannah and Mick talk to Priscilla Holbrook, one of the team behind America is Hard To See, which is heading to the Edinburgh Fringe after an award-winning off-Broadway run. It tells the story of Miracle, a community of paroled sex offenders in rural Florida, so we talked to Priscilla about how she got involved, forgiveness and whether calling such men "monsters" does more harm than good.
