I got myself right with God, I help to steer the youth and everyone in the right direction. I tell them, no matter their past, they can change their futures.

I am doing a life without parole for murder. I went to Hall high school until the 11th grade. My father was a minister and my mom was a school teacher. I have one daughter who is 32 years old. I moved to Oklahoma in 1998 after I did five years in AOC. That’s where I caught this charge I’m on now and got a life sentence. I am doing my time here closer to my family. I got myself right with God, I help to steer the youth and everyone in the right direction. I tell them, no matter their past, they can change their futures. I do a lot of positive things with my time. I have three projects doing good at the moment. One is a published book called ORIGINAL PLAYER. My other projects include a co-ed magazine, and a book about the true heroes of the pandemic. I feel they will all do great if they get seen. I love my family, thank them for their support and I do what I do because they inspire me to do good.

These stories arrive by mail.

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.
