Free Cyntoia: My Search for Redemption in the American Prison System
by Cyntoia Brown-Long
Faith in the middle of hopelessness
Cyntoias story was heartbreaking in that even with a loving mom, girls can still develop low self esteem that leaves them vulnerable to people who prey on the weak. It’s also a reminder that words can hurt and lead to self fulfilling prophecies, especially on young impressionable minds. Our prison system in America needs a swift over haul in so many aspects. But I am so glad to see how faith like a mustard seed can be planted, flourish and grow. Her story is one of rehabilitation, courage, transformation, triumph, love and faith. A must read.
