Kim Kardashian West's sons have inspired her to continue with her work on criminal justice reform

She said: "When you become a mum, you become so protective. You want to, hopefully, make their world the most perfect place ever. And ours obviously isn't. And I definitely see how, especially, like, black men, are treated in this country, still differently. And I'm raising two black men and so I want to make sure that my world and their world is as safe and as fair as possible."

And the 39-year-old reality television star is "so glad" that she's gone on such a "journey" with her legal work.

She added: "It's just been such a journey that I didn't ever imagine I would be on. But I'm so glad that I am. And I just love that we've been able to just get a lot of work done and I just don't want to stop that."

Kim recently met with Rodney Reed, who was granted a 120-day stay of ex ecution. Rodney was convicted of murder 21 years ago, but has always protested his innocence and he will now have his case reviewed by a court.

Speaking on US breakfast show, Today, she shared: "When we got the news it was just this, like, overwhelming sigh of relief and hope. It was emotional. It was extremely emotional, and he said, 'Praise Jesus.' I could just feel his soul when he said that."
