Kanoya Ali and Peter Cunningham sit down with Billy Moore, site manager for Chicago CRED and author of "Until the Lion Speaks." Billy shares his remarkable journey from making a tragic mistake at 16 that cost him 20 years in prison to becoming a leading voice in Chicago's violence intervention movement.

Billy opens up about his unlikely mentorship with Larry Hoover at the Stateville prison, how losing his son to gun violence just weeks before starting his current work shaped his mission, and the heartbreaking story of Steven Ward—his first program participant who was killed despite his dedication to change. Through raw, honest conversation, Billy explains what it means to have "License to Operate" in Chicago's most challenging neighborhoods and how community violence intervention is helping drive down shootings across the city.
