I grew up in #angolapenitentiary I’ve experienced my dad losing friend’s, #solitaryconfinement and I’ve even seen my dad shackled and chained like an animal it’s an #adversechildhoodexperiences that can cause #generationaltrauma
When someone visits a prison they are usually transformed by the surroundings, & soon convert to new ways of thinking & speaking about prison. That's why the SYSTEM tries hard to keep visitors & media out. You can never forget what you see, hear, smell and feel.

My incarcerated dad & I developed a policy program for the nonprofit we created @dbinola. I’m always amazed at how creative we are when we work together ❤️ @parentNprison helps folks strategize ideas around #parentalincarceration & @dbinola was created to help girls like me
