"I AM: Proud" -- "B Inspired" Encore Episode Features Police Chief Barry Leatherman

Police Chief Barry Leatherman’s challenge can be summed up as "Make America Kind Again." Jane was inspired over 40 years ago by the determination of this gifted ninth grade student and knew his perspectives today as a community leader would offer new inspiration.

Barry Leatherman, Chief of the Eastern Berks Regional Police Department, shares some personal history about his family and career journey, offers insights about challenges facing policing and the community he serves, and suggests a response and a challenge.
