Motivational Mondays: Conversations with Leaders Motivational Minutes with Donna Hylton
Donna Hylton is a champion of criminal justice reform and an advocate for the rights of incarcerated women. She spent 27 years in prison, but her work since release has been an inspiration to many worldwide.
Donna was young when she was sentenced, but she soon realized that other women she met had very similar backstories of abuse and she wondered why they ended up doing time. It was because either no one listened or they didn't tell anyone about their abuse.
Listen to this week’s Motivational Minutes episode to learn about the connection between traumas and incarceration, and how these instances are even more prevalent among black women.
