We turn to another effort to help Californians preserve and document their own stories, in their own words. This one focuses on people whose lives have been affected by the criminal justice system. A community writing workshop in San Diego has just published the new collection, "Reclaiming our Stories." It features first-person narratives from 19 emerging writers, many of whom have struggled with homelessness, gangs, or childhood trauma. Joining us are two of the book?s contributors, Beto Vasquez and Truth Sutton.
