Radio Replay: Crime As A Disease

In moments of anger, it can be hard to take a deep breath or count to ten.

This week, we visit a Chicago program that helps young men learn how to pause and reflect. Plus, we ask whether we should think of violence as a disease, similar to a blood-borne pathogen in its ability to spread from person to person.
