Thursday Jun 12, 2025
Host, Phillip A. Jones had a powerful conversation with guest, Travon McCoy, and inspiring voice who is shining beyond the walls of prison. As, I continue hosting The Wall Behind and Beyond, my mission goes beyond sharing my own story. It's about amplifying the voices of those who are working to change the criminal justice landscape, especially those who are still incarcerated, and are often overlooked. We must remember: it's not always about us. Sometimes, it's about making space for others who deserve a first or second chance. So, hats off to my fellow Baltimorean, Travon McCoy, who's not just talking the talk, he's walking the walk.
