This wonderful video was produced by Dale Bradshaw of Management & Training Corporation (MTC) of Utah. It presents the story of Glen Conley II, a resident of Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF), who presented an academic paper on Anne Moody in April 2021. At that time, I was the chaplain at WCCF, which is located in Woodville, Miss. This was my final history project at the facility. I am really proud of Conley and his work on Moody, who was a civil rights pioneer and the author of "Coming of Age in Mississippi." Kudos to Dr. Leigh Ann Wheeler, who invited Conley to participate in the conference.

The MTC video and story can be viewed here.
