Desmond Meade, one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of 2019, spent a number of his younger years in and out of incarceration. In this episode, we discuss the criminalization of addiction, homelessness and poverty. How addiction and hopelessness led Desmond to the brink of taking his own life. And the challenges he still faces, all these years and many accolades later, as a result of his conviction.
