Hello and welcome to Daily English. As it’s the weekend, we learn English through real stories. The full transcript is in the description.and our story is about an unlikely kind of inspiration: concerts in prison.
What Happened? In the 1950s and 60s, famous musician Johnny Cash performed concerts in American prisons. Many people wondered why he would sing for criminals. But Cash believed music could bring hope where it was needed most. Those concerts planted something powerful. For the prisoners, they were moments of dignity and humanity. For the outside world, they planted the seeds of awareness that prisoners were not just criminals, but also people capable of change. The concerts didn’t change prisons overnight, but they planted the seeds of compassion and reform.
