What an excellent segment on an amazing person Father Greg Boyle @HomeboyInd I've seen firsthand hardcore gang members repent and turn from their life of violence to love and kindness...very inspiring 🇺🇸🙏🏻
Elex Michaelson@Elex_Michaelson

For months, we've worked on a documentary profiling Father Greg Boyle & @HomeboyInd. They've helped thousands of people over 4 decades transition from gang violence & addiction...to productive work. It debuts tonight on @TheIssueIsShow at 10:30p @FOXLA. I went on @GDLA with @Araksya & @JennLahmers to preview it.
