In this powerful conversation, we sit down with Chris Horne and Tosha Smith Mills, two incredible individuals shedding light on the often-overlooked struggles of mothers with incarcerated children.📽️ Chris Horne, a photographer turned filmmaker, brings attention to these untold stories through his documentary, Unheard Voices. His work captures the raw emotions and harsh realities of families affected by the justice system.📖 Tosha Smith Mills is a wife, mother, aunt, and longtime talent agent with over 20 years of experience in the entertainment industry. But her most life-changing role came when her oldest son, Blake, was sentenced to 40 years in prison at just 18 years old for two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon—despite no guns being found and no injuries reported.💔 Tosha’s world fell apart. She was grieving the loss of her mother, her marriage was crumbling, and she felt completely alone in navigating the pain of having a son behind bars. With no resources available to help mothers like her, she took matters into her own hands and wrote "Mama, I Should Have Listened" (2016)—a book that has since opened doors for her to speak at colleges and inside prisons, offering guidance to incarcerated men and their families.🔊 This episode dives deep into:✔️ The emotional toll on mothers of incarcerated children✔️ The justice system’s lasting impact on families✔️ How storytelling and advocacy can drive change✔️ Why Unheard Voices is an essential documentaryBlake has now been incarcerated for 15 years, but his mother’s fight for awareness and reform continues.
