Is entrepreneurship an answer to America’s high recidivism rate? Fast Company explores one man’s path from prison to self-sufficiency.
Guys like us just want a chance to work and better ourselves, but that’s not so easy when you’ve served time. Your record is public information; it’s on Google.

You look around you at people who have no hope for a better life and it starts to wash off on you.
