Fight until there is no time left on the clock!

The real reason that I'm writing is not to whinge about our calls or our pay per week, it is about the lack of pen-pal services to give prisoners like myself connection and community whilst incarcerated.

Whilst I appreciate that this issue only affects 0.01% of the prison population, I do find it hard to believe that this issue hasn’t been highlighted previously.

I agree that we should all be held accountable when it comes to our past actions, but what about the system? Is it being held accountable too?

This is the continuous “therapy” I receive from those considered on the “bottom.” Never doubt your goodness.

One thing to keep in mind (and is also relevant) is the unemployment or hygiene wages ($15 approximately).

We want to know why we get treated differently in jail than on the outside.

All we are asking for is a basic improvement to our living conditions and a definite morale booster for deserving inmates.

And from that day on, my very first day, I wasn’t alone – I had 27 brothers and we all looked out for each other.

Sometimes we take things for granted, like our freedom. I've only been in prison a short time compared to some, but I still feel the pinch.
