The Hustler Files Ep 16
THE SINS OF THE PARENTS SHOULD NOT BE LAID UPON THEIR CHILDREN
In the United States, one in five children has had a parent incarcerated at some point, and more than 75% of children who have had a parent incarcerated, has themselves become incarcerated. John F. Kennedy said, “We are not here to cure the darkness, but to light the candle that can guide us through that darkness to a safe and sane future”. This episode is emotionally riveting, not just because the woman sharing her story has both of her parents incarcerated for war crimes in Senegal and Rwanda, but because of the abuse she sustained as a victim, because of her parents circumstances. It is a journey of epic proportions that brings her to a place where, with the support of a village, she can share her story.
