💡 In This Episode
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Kenny Hunter, whose story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the power of education behind the wall. Raised in a close-knit, faith-filled home in Virginia, Kenny's life took a sharp turn when he left home and turned to selling drugs as a means of survival. That decision led to a 23-year sentence. While incarcerated, Kenny made a life-changing decision: to pursue education as his way forward. Through books, learning, and self-reflection, he not only transformed his mindset but became a passionate advocate for educational access in prison. This episode is a call to action for those still inside—use your time wisely, invest in yourself, and believe that your future is worth fighting for.
