Shanti Bright Brien is a criminal defense attorney and co-Founder of Fogbreak Justice, a national organization that collaborates with criminal justice professionals, civic leaders and business change-makers who are serious about fairness, equity and inclusion. On the Diversity Pivot Podcast, we're having tough conversations about privilege, inclusion, and leadership journeys. Shanti joins the podcast to share vulnerably about:
