I made mistakes that took me away from the world I once knew. Being surrounded by these beautiful women, the ones I love didn’t allow those mistakes to keep me away. They came to surround me, so I held them close, promising them I was coming home. I said I love you, and they told me they loved me more. What more could I ask for? I’m grateful for my Mum, Tia, and my wife!
Every month, a physical envelope arrives at your door, postmarked from San Quentin Village, California. Inside, you will find original artwork, writing, and recipes from real contributors, along with a personal letter from me, Diane Kahn, founder of Humans of San Quentin, about the people who made them. You read it. You keep it.
Every piece comes from someone serving a sentence. Every piece reminds you they are so much more than that.
