Destiny's After-College Schedule, May 9, 2016. (Official DestinyJackson.org photo)
This week, I'm completing some administrative tasks. Today, I completed exit counseling. Later this week, I will organize all of my papers, exams, and assignments. Right now they are a spaghetti mess! But, by this Friday all should be neat and contained.
I'm also looking forward to picking up my graduation portraits this Sunday—super excited!
Besides that, I'll start planning for law school and planning law school visits over the next couple of weeks. Law school is the next academic chapter in my life. I've been called to lobby for prison and criminal justice reform. I still can't believe the U.S. has the world's highest incarceration rate, with more than 2 million people behind bars. Just as eye-opening, around 5 million children have (or have had) a parent in prison. We can't wait any longer to take committed action.
Shifting gears, I must thank you for your college congratulations that you sent me via social media this week. So special. I filmed a live broadcast on periscope of my graduation day on Saturday, May 7, 2016. That was awesome. Unfortunately though, the link expired after 24 hours and we can't view the broadcast now :(
Nevertheless, we still have the photo memories. Check them out now on my instagram page @DestinyRianaJackson here!
In light and love,
Destiny
