Description

In an episode like no other, Kelly talks with Anthony Ray Hinton, an American activist and author who was wrongly convicted of murder in Alabama in 1985, and exonerated after 30 years in prison. He credits his faith, imagination and the love of a very good mother, for getting him through those years. Special thanks to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations, our production partner on the Belief series. SPECIAL NOTE: If you are moved by this episode and want to take action, please write letters to the Governor of your state asking them to abolish the death penalty and create conviction integrity units.

Welcome to Kelly Corrigan Wonders, a place for people who like to laugh while they think and find it useful to look closely at ourselves and our weird ways in the hopes that knowing more and feeling more will help us do more and be better.  Author of 4 New York Times bestsellers about family life, Kelly wonders about loads of stuff: is knowing more always good? Can we trust our gut? How does change actually happen?  We only book nice people who have a sense of humor and know things worth knowing. Each episode ends with Kelly’s shortlist of takeaways, appropriate for refrigerator doors, bulletin boards and notes to your children.
