Local Author Keeda Haynes at WCPL

Author and activist Keeda Haynes spoke to a maximum capacity audience at the Franklin location of Williamson County Public Library on Sunday, December 5, 2021. This event is one of many in the mid-state area as part of her book launch. As a Franklin native, there is a strong local interest in her biography, BENDING THE ARC: MY JOURNEY FROM PRISON TO POLITICS.

The author’s story is both inspiring and heartbreaking, and her voice is simultaneously impassioned and informed. Haynes is adept at using her personal experience to illustrate general truths about the flaws in the criminal justice system as well as specific avenues for reform.

Previously, Ms. Haynes was the Senior Legal Advisor at Free Hearts – a non-profit organization led by formerly incarcerated women. She was also a former Public Defender and has participated in many aspects of criminal justice reform with an ardent focus on mass incarceration, the re-entry process and voting rights restoration.
