Sunday, June 26, 8 p.m. CDT: Watch "Erasing Hate" - a true story of redemption - on MSNBC

From The Southern Poverty Law Center:
Please remember to tune in for or set your DVR to Erasing Hate this Sunday evening on MSNBC.
Erasing Hate is a true story of redemption. This original 1 hr MSNBC documentary chronicles the grueling journey of Bryon Widner, a skinhead "enforcer" who—with the help of the Southern Poverty Law Center—extracted himself from the white power world, only to find that the racist tattoos covering his head and body were a constant reminder to himself and others of his violent past.

With the financial help of the SPLC and its supporters, Bryon submitted to nearly two years of excruciating tattoo removal treatments—a penance of sorts for the hurt he had caused so many others in his past—so that he and his family could start a new life.
