By Jennifer Napier-Pearce
Salt Lake City, UT – TJ Leyden was 14 when he started propagating the gospel of hate. He covered his body in sinister tattoos, he stabbed and maimed people in the name of white power, and he recruited hundreds to his way of thinking. But then Leyden had an epiphany. Jennifer Napier-Pearce talks with Leyden about his remarkable transformation and the years he's spent trying to make amends. (Rebroadcast)
