"In this remarkable narrative, Alma Robinson outlines a successful journey to expand public funds for arts programs in prisons and jails, building pathways for incarcerated individuals to discover their humanity as they reintegrate into society. She also draws attention to the important role of private philanthropy in seeding demonstration projects and funding sustainable programs." --Darren Walker, former Ford Foundation president and author of From Generosity to Justice "At a time in our country and in our world where hope seems far away, this wonderful book from Alma Robinson boldly shows how the powerful combination of creativity and commitment to human dignity can lead to undreamt of opportunities. This is a story worth sharing, one that can ignite the imagination of all who want to make a difference and move our world from the nightmare it often is to the dream that God has for it." --The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, XXVII Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church and author of Love Is the Way: Holding onto Hope in Troubling Times.
