The Visionary Activist: 30th anniversary of Jonestown Murders.Caroline welcomes prize-winning LA Times journalist Tim Reiterman, author of the recently re-published "Raven-The Untold Story of the Rev Jim Jones and His People."
Reiterman was wounded on the jungle airstrip attack that killed Rep. Leo Ryan and 3 reporters and a temple defector 30 years ago.
