I am in awe of these young Americans who so bravely shared their mental health journeys in @KenBurns’ new @PBS documentary, Hiding In Plain Sight. I had the honor of meeting many of them a few weeks ago, and I hope their courageous stories will help others, too.

2/2 @DeborahAppleman's "Word's Words No Bars Can Hold" is a necessary reminder—there are over two million people incarcerated in the United States every year, stripped of their dignity and right to participate. These powerful voices NEED to be heard. #prisonindustrialcomplex
