Fox News
On day 97 of his rooftop journey, Pastor Corey Brooks and Jeff Korzenik discussed forgiveness.
On the 97th day of his 100-day rooftop vigil to build a community center to transform the South Side of Chicago into a thriving community, Pastor Corey Brooks invited Jeff Korzenik, the author of "Untapped Talent," to the rooftop for a discussion. Korzenik is an economic researcher, author and chief investment strategist for Fifth Third Bank.
"When we talk about ‘Untapped Talent,’ your subtitle says, ‘How Second Chance Hiring Works for Your Business and the Community,’" the pastor said. "I want to ask you, when it comes to second chance hiring and returning citizens, people who are returning into society from prison, why do we have this problem with these individuals in the first place?"
