--"A PERSON CANNOT BECOME WHO THEY NEED TO BE BY REMAINING WHO THEY ARE!!" By Wesley I. Purkey, Federal Death Row. My great Aunt Ga-ga who adopted me when I was kid, who didn't weigh a buckfiVe soak and wet, inundated me with an assemblage of words of wisdom, which has left an indelibte imprint on me.

A Practical Approach to Prison Reform As we progress further into the twenty-first century, one thing is clear: serious changes need to be made to the American prison system. America has become a society with the highest incarceration rate of any nation in the world. And with well over two million men and women in America's prisons, there are more people incarcerated in the United States than any other country. In an age of record budget deficits and massive national debt, it would appea...

A Vision For the Future By Mick Whitlock As the steel door slammed shut behind me, I realized that a new chapter in my life was about to begin.

What the future held for my young family was unclear. As my mind drifted between memories of the past and thoughts of what might have been, feelings of helplessness began to c...

FRIENDS AND FAMILY CAMPAIGN TO FREE INDIANA POLITICAL PRISONER KHALFANI MALIK KHALDUN The long struggle to have the Indiana prisoncrats to release Khalfani Malik Khaldun to general population is over. It cam to an end on November 20, 2014, ten days before his 45* birthday, after spending 20 straight years in solitary confinement. This victory is bittersweet, because while housed at the New Castle Correctional Facility, working his way through a step-down program called S-T.A.N.D. (striving tow...

It is Good Justice is Blind Because She Would Not Like Some Of the Things Done in Her Name if She Could See Them By Wesley I. Purkey Not long after turning 18 in 1970 I was booked in the Sedgwich County Jail, Wichita, KS after being convicted of burglary by a jury not of my peers. The jail was packed beyond capacity and because of such I was housed in one of the segregation cells on the fifth floor. The cell had a piece of plywood and a waffle size mattress for a bunk on the floor and a hole ...

Karma "The Poison Has To Run Its Course" by Wesley I. Purkey Some memories are indelibly etched in our minds that remain as vivid as a snapshot in time. Some are memorable, and others are not. This one falls in the latter category, although bitter-sweet! After suffering many beatings of different degree and magnitude and streams of different acts of humiliation at the hands of the person most despised in my life as a child; my alcoholic dad, his final act of cowardness drove home th...

Labeling Theory Like most prisoners, I could go on a tirade about the multitude of problems that exist within the confines of prisons. But, most of those problems are merely symptomatic of a greater issue: the way in which prisoners are viewed. The police, courts, legislators, and prison officials label prisoners in ways that perpetuate the existing system. For the prisoner, the labeling process begins at the time of arrest. Suspects are humiliated by being arrested in public. This humiliatio...
