John Grisham chronicles stories of the wrongly convicted

Season 2024 Episode 318 | 9m 37s

When Centurion was founded, it was the first group of its kind working to overturn wrongful convictions for people facing execution or life. Decades later, the work continues and its story is being told by its founder and novelist John Grisham. Jeffrey Brown reports for our series, Art in Action, exploring the intersection of art and democracy and for our arts and culture coverage, CANVAS.
