Wrongful Conviction to Community Healing: Bilaal Evans

Kanoya Ali and Peter Cunningham sit down with Bilaal Evans, founder of Restorative Project in Englewood, who has been doing gun violence prevention work since 2007.

Bilaal shares his incredible journey from growing up in Chicago's Henry Horner Projects, where he lost 26 cousins to gun violence, to surviving 15 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit. Wrongfully convicted at age 17 by detectives connected to the notorious John Burge torture cases, Bilaal's experience with injustice became the driving force behind his community work.
