Join your host Hermene Hartman as she interviews inspiring people and chats about interesting topics from an honest and entertaining perspective.

In this REWIND episode, N’DIGO Studio presents the remarkable journey of former congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. seeking a presidential pardon after incarceration. His powerful story transforms from political power to prison revelation, offering exclusive insights on criminal justice reform, redemption, and America’s pardon system.

With vulnerable honesty, Jackson shares his legislative battles, personal struggles, and pursuit of official forgiveness. The congressman’s unexpected prison discovery challenges conventional understanding about second chances and restorative justice in America. Join our in-depth conversation that redefines how we view pardons, rehabilitation, and social justice reform in today’s political landscape.

Jesse Jackson Jr., son of civil rights icon Reverend Jesse Jackson and Jacqueline Jackson, brings a unique perspective forged through both privilege and hardship. For 17 years, he represented Illinois’ 2nd congressional district, championing social justice and political reform before his career was derailed by legal troubles. With roots deeply embedded in America’s civil rights movement, Jackson offers intimate insights into his childhood, political journey, and the profound lessons learned from both his time in Congress and federal prison. His story of fall and potential redemption provides a compelling lens through which to examine our justice system, political accountability, and the long path toward personal restoration.
