To close out Black History Month, we hosted a live panel discussion with the Afrimerican Academy High School youth where they discussed their experiences as black students in predominantly white institutions in the Greater Boston area. This restorative conversation was on the plight of today's black students that carry on the legacy of Ruby Bridges. How far have we really come since November 14th, 1960 - a little less than 62 years ago? Watch the YouTube video clips here to see the highlights: https://bit.ly/3q5g5Y7

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
