A moving human story. If you listen to just one thing today, make it this one.
In 2008 Chloe Hadjimatheou was covering Barack Obama's first election campaign when she met a 15-year-old black boy in a Mississippi trailer park. Back then the young Tobias was full of potential and had big dreams of becoming a policeman.
"He really made an impression on me when I met him eight years ago. He just seemed like such a smart young man and I was just curious to see what happened to him... I was hoping good things for him."
Eight years later, Chloe goes in search of him to find what became of him. Did Tobias ever fulfil his wishes?
