For much of their young lives, journalist Julia Scheeres and her adopted brother David suffered in the name of religion – both at home in Indiana and at a Christian Fundamentalist boarding school in the Dominican Republic called Escuela Caribe. Scheeres wrote about her experiences in the highly-acclaimed 2005 memoir “Jesus Land” (Counterpoint, 2005). Julia Scheeres will join us this hour to discuss the book which is now out in paperback.
