I make commentary relevant to those affected by the criminal justice system, especially reentry issues, correctional education, critical thinking and philosophy.

The ideas they planned in prison have come to fruition in the last few years with the creation of an advocacy organization in Texas called Lioness Justice Impacted Women's Alliance. Listen to Jennifer's remarkable journey from incarceration to inspiration, and witness how one woman's resilience can spark a movement.
