Anthony Ray Hinton is an African American man from Alabama who was held on the state’s death row for nearly 30 years after being wrongly convicted of the murders of two
restaurant workers in Birmingham, Alabama in 1985. One of the comments that Hinton made when he was released from prison was, “The Sun Does Sine”. These words eventually became part of the title to his memoir. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Hinton said that the words were inspired from feeling as if the sun was shining solely on
him as he made his way from the prison and into an audience of reporters and supporters. On Morning Energy, we are going to dive deeper into the topic of surviving imprisonment to include learning how Hinton was able to do just that.
The majority of us will likely never have to face the type of imprisonment that Mr. Hinton experienced, however, there are other ways in our lives that we may feel imprisoned – which we will be discussing on today’s program – to include survival tips.
