Rest in power, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee. Her support was crucial in helping secure clemency for Sharanda Jones. This photo with her & Sharanda captures the joy of our meeting after Sharanda's release. Her legacy of change and dedication to justice will forever inspire us.

Sad the Florida Department of Corrections is starting to ban my book. I spoke nothing but TRUTH in the book and I've received hundreds of letters from people in prisons telling me that my book gave them so much hope. Shame on Florida DOC for trying to strip that hope away.

Cheslie was adamant about supporting me during my @TEDTalks in NYC a couple of months ago. I was so happy to see her gorgeous, smiling face in the audience. Sisterhood. A true friend. Her light was so bright. She will be deeply missed. Rest easy, Ches. I love you @CheslieKryst 💫
