Diane: 5/2/2021
Thanks for giving me a platform where I can express myself. I’m not a good speaker but I’m blessed to say that I can write. I’m very creative. I used to be an evil person and I caused a lot of damage to the community so your lovely platform gives me a voice to touch and heal people. I have another wonderful writing piece ready. Maybe I should wait before I send it out. I don’t know if it’s too early or too much. God bless and thank you very much. Shalom.

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.
