Listen "Ep. 6: Fresh Start"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Alyssa travels to Fayetteville, NC to talk with Charles Evans - the County Commissioner of Cumberland County. Commissioner Evans tells us about his struggle with addiction that led to a felony conviction. We learn how losing his right to vote was the worst part about his conviction, so once he had his rights restored, he decided to run for office himself and be a leader for his neighbors, constituents, and others who might be in the same situation he was. Alyssa and Commissioner Evans are also joined by Democracy NC's Val Applewhite.Support the showFollow us on all your favorite platforms!
