In Episode 27 of The Cameron Brown Show, I sit down with Shakem Amen Akhet, a man whose life is a remarkable story of resilience, transformation, and dedication to creating positive change. Raised in a military family, Shakem faced adversity early in life, leading to 8.5 years in prison on drug charges. While incarcerated, he became a student of the law, advocating for himself and fellow inmates, and addressing the critical need for legal literacy among prisoners.
Today, Shakem is a passionate community leader and activist, focused on education and empowering the youth. Through his work with the North Charleston Community Resource Center and other organizations, he is ensuring young people have the tools and resources they need to succeed.
This inspiring conversation explores Shakem’s journey from hardship to hope, his advocacy for education, and his commitment to uplifting the next generation.
