Shaka Senghor: A Complex Hero

Best-selling author, recognized speaker and criminal justice activist, Shaka Senghor, brings his full presence to a deeply moving conversation about gun violence, fatherhood, breaking cycles, and healing. Formerly incarcerated, Shaka shares with us how journaling in solitary confinement allowed him to process his pain and gain access to his emotions and his humanity. With gentle power and a strong sense of purpose, Shaka reminds us that we can disrupt who the world tells us we should be and create our own narrative to become who we really are.
