Dear Humans of San Quentin and Diane,
I want to start with a big thank you for your warm response to my writings and for how sharing my story touched you all. I’m excited to hear about those who have been educated by these writings and the powerful impact they may have on someone. Thank you also for the certificate, it means a lot to know that, somehow, this work is helping bring awareness to others.
Thank you again for your time.
Respectfully,
Hugo
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.
