Golden States of Grace

Documentary photographer Rick Nahmias spent more than 3 years researching, photographing, and taking oral histories of 11 California faith communities outside the religious mainstream -- including transgender hookers in San Francisco's Tenderloin who worship Santa Muerte, felons who practice Zen meditation inside San Quentin, and an AIDS ashram in West Hollywood. The result is a touching multi-media traveling exhibit and book, Golden States of Grace: Prayers of the Disinherited. Meet Rick and hear inspiring words and song from the exhibit. Eric Jansen hosts. - air date Oct 6, 2011
