Asia Willis grew up in a strong middle class family with caring parents. She was very active in sports and was a standout on the basketball court. After a stint at college, she returned to her old neighborhood and found herself choosing to go after the fast money. Those decisions found her in trouble with the law for the very first time followed by a 7 year prison sentence. There, rather than finding politics and gangs and racism, she tells her unique story of find nurturing, caring women in prison who showed her a better way. She proudly claims that “All Her Friends are Felons.” After parole, she finds herself living a productive life, making her way with the help of her friends.
