This week, host Mungi Ngomane speaks with the inspiring and determined Susan Burton, Founder of A New Way of Life Reentry Project, and published author. Ms. Burton has been helping women rebuild their lives after prison and providing the services, advocacy and shelter that they need and are not receiving through the system. Through her own experience rebuilding her life after getting out of jail, Ms. Burton witnessed firsthand how inequitable our society is for the formerly incarcerated. Today, she is helping women who are often unheard tell their stories. In this episode, you'll hear Ms. Burton explain why being described as the "Modern Day Harriet Tubman" is problematic; how we can help formerly incarcerated people and how the police brutality of the past year has affected her.

*This episode was recorded before the Senate run-off elections in Georgia.
