Father Greg Boyle’s motto is that nothing stops a bullet like a job, and he’s spent the last 20 years trying to bring those opportunities to the darker corners of Los Angeles.
The people who work with Father Boyle don’t fit a typical employee profile. Most have never held steady work, or even finished school. Many are covered with tattoos that identify them as a member of a particular gang. Others have gunshot and knife wounds that tie them to a past they are desperate to leave.
Guests:
Father Gregory Boyle, founder of Homeboy Industries, a job placement service for former gang members in East Los Angeles.
