Shaka Senghor was sent to prison 1991 for second-degree murder. He was 19. Senghor became a bookworm. He was released in 2010.
Today, Senghor is a leading voice in criminal justice reform and the Director of Strategy for #Cut50, a national bipartisan initiative to safely and smartly reduce the prison population by 50 percent by 2025.
This quote is from Senghor's interview on the a16z Podcast.
