As soon as Rahim's son was born, he was terrified. He was afraid that the life of incarceration that shaped his family would shape his child, too. From prison, he tried to help his son break the prison cycle. Uncuffed producer Derrell "Sadiq" Davis interviewed Rahim about his fears and how he's proud his son chose a different future.
