Aynez Bordeaux and Activism

Aynez Bordeaux became an activist after her experience with the criminal legal system when she was unable to pay her bond. This led to her detention at a facility in St. Louis known as The Workhouse, infamous for its deplorable conditions. Her personal journey fueled her commitment to advocate for reforms, aiming to shut down this facility, highlighting the broader issues of systemic injustice within the legal system. Through collective efforts with other advocates, she successfully campaigned against The Workhouse, drawing attention to the plight of those caught in similar situations.
