Reginald Dwayne Betts on Freedom and Poetic Constraint
Reginald Dwayne Betts is a poet, a lawyer, and the founder and CEO of Freedom Reads, an organization with the goal of bringing a library to every cell block in America.

Read a transcript of this episode on our website, and find books by Betts in our library catalog.
