"Amen—Ra: An Example of the Doubt Most Prisoners Struggle with" by Deyon Neal A good dude. Unassuming. Sociable. Intelligent. Those were the first impressions that I got from observing him. Everyone in the hole called him Amen-Ra, which was Egyptian for "God". sith such a dominating presence, he could've controlled the unitls criminal activity, but he wasn't into that. He uplifted people. Everyone not only respected Ra, they looked up to him. "what joint you...

***-Beyond The Wall--*** How do I say it? How do I spit out on paper what I want known to a special someone beyond the wall? Never can simple words, funny little marks on paper, tell of the loneliness, the doubt, the bitterness and frustration; companions of everyone in this gray world; A world away from the world. No one can knew, no one who has not been a blue-clad, faceless, numbered nothing. I can't tell then, but I can try. I can try because when this human meat-grinder spits me bac...

David Franklin Adrian, MI CONJUGAL VISITS How a Husband and Wife Survive Prison By: David Franklin 4,500 words "I now pronounce you husband and wife." Those seven words triggered so much emotion inside me. The rush was something I'd never experienced before. The love I experienced at that moment was exceptional and it still lives on to this day. Admittedly though, those weren't the only emotions I was feeling. I also felt a lot of anxiety and fear. I was scared that I woul...

Kenneth Nixon Dear Mr. Unwilling and Reluctant Witness, I know that we don't know each other personally, but whether you realize it or not, we are connected.

For every day of the past 8 years, My family and I have been trying to diligently and desperately prove my innocence, ...

First Day Out by Deyon A. Neal They feared I would be a problem. It took them three days to actually follow through with the decision. whenever they brought a convict an army- green duffle bag and told him to pack up, he left in a few hours tops. I had seen hundreds of guys released from administrative segregation at Baraga Max (henceforth, sag’) and I'd never seen the staff tell any of them that their Friday release had been rescheduled until the following Monday morning. The radio in m...

Larry R. Carter "Grandaddy, Come Home" There is a dichotomy in America that pits our much-ballyhooed "love of freedom" against our disdain for it. In the past, it was people of color - African-American slaves, Native Americans forced onto reservations, Japanese-Americans forced into internment camps - who suffered the indignities of this split personality. Today, it is the families of America's prisoners. For 250 years, this American nation imprisoned an entire race o...

The Day I Grew Up by David Franklin Come, step inside the Michigan Reformatory Maximum Security Prison with me, I would like to share my story with you, about the day I grew up. The first step off the bus took my breath away, the place was a fortress! A stone castle dressed in gun towers, cages, and razor wire. Officers led us in a single file line toward the entrance. Once inside, the massive metal door closed behind me, and I realized I am not in Kansas anymore. I was led down a long trash ...

The weight of Ignorance By Dsyon Neal An inmate once told me ignorance is why we come to prison and why we stay. when my retained appellate attorney told me she would no longer represent me, I went into despair. we were only at the Michigan Supreme Court phase. I still had a federal habeas corpus petition to file and, if necessary, subsequent appeals for that. Not to mention a 6.500 Motion for Relief From Judgement in trial court if the habeas petition was denied. I only had a GED certificate...
